Overview
ISCA provides a complete pathway of study in Australia, from English language school through to primary or high School, tertiary college/ university. We offer parents of students complete Peace of Mind. Once you put your child under our care, you know that you can be at peace even when your child is so far away.
We provide assistance in the selection of the MOST APPROPRIATE educational institution for the international student: Primary/ High School in either short-term 3 and 6 months, OR long-term 12, 21, 24 and 36 month programs.
We also organize Study Tours and Supervised Holiday Excursion programs. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Fraser Island, Sydney, Ayers Rock and other customised trips as offered. ISCA has just introduced travel to New Zealand to its long list of travel destinations!
We are a Certified Australian Homestay Accommodation Company and offer a 24-hour emergency support for students and host families. We specialise in caring for the under 18year olds. ISCA provides a professional home accommodation program involving a variety of quality accommodation packages. The style of accommodation recommended by ISCA will depend on the study program chosen and the personal requirements of the student and family.
ISCA does not see its programs as just learning English and going home; rather ISCA aims to mentor your child on the road to adulthood, supporting them to become more confident, self-sufficient, able to make independent decisions, manage their finances, adjust to another culture and make lifelong friends through a shared cultural exchange.

Academic Credit
Academic credit is available.  We place students only in Accredited schools that would offer the recognised credits.

Housing/Accommodation
Homestay / Host Family

What are the host families responsible for? To treat the student as own child. For the period the student lives with them, share their home and heart like they would with another child in home. Nice clean room, bed, wardrobe, desk is basic need. At least 3 meals a day. Breakfast, packed lunch and dinner which is the sit-down etc. together and chat about the day meal. Transport to school if required. If student is out late then pick up form destination or from bus stop. Responsible for moral and emotional well being, like one of their own family. Safety security. For this reason they maybe stricter than own natural parents because Australia is different sort of society, old fashioned and dangers maybe more if out late. Attend school functions, parent-teacher meeting and graduation ceremonies when required. Medical emergencies: take to doctor, hospital whatever is required. If student is stuck in some place, lost wallet etc, come and pick them up. Of course ISCA is there to support all of this as back up at all times.
