As part of the school, the students will be grocery shopping and cooking for themselves. Should you have chosen to take the offered student accommodation, the weekly grocery money will be paid out of the accommodation fee.

What’s Sale like?

Sale is a beautiful suburb of Manchester with a good tram connection into Manchester, a canal, nice coffee shops and pubs and a little high street.

Is there financial aid?

As we don’t have a big enough student body yet that can support offering scholarships, we sadly cannot offer that option at this moment in time – however please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or doubts as we don't want money to be the only thing keeping you from coming to the school..

Do I have to pay all my fees at registration?

Yes, all School fees must be paid in full, on or before registration day.

Can I work while at the school to support myself financially?

The School schedule is demanding and varied and includes evening and weekend commitments, which makes it difficult to allow for permanent employment. iDestiny students are not permitted to work for the duration of their time at school.

Are there any other costs? How much will I need for personal spending?

There are no hidden fees. However, since you’ll be with us for at least 5 months, you might want to go for coffee every now and then or buy that jacket you’ve been looking for – those are the things you’ll have to pay for yourself. £5 - £10 will be enough for laundry each week, buying essentials such as toiletries and going to see a movie for example.

What expectations should I have toward the school?

The School schedule is full of a variety of different ministry opportunities on both a spiritual and practical level, as well as teaching sessions, worship, small groups, various creative workshops and practical ‘work duties’.

What expectations will meet me at the school?

Students will seek to "be imitators of God" with "not even a hint of sexual immorality, or any kind of impurity," living as "children of light" and finding out "what pleases the Lord" (Ephesians 5:1-12). This standard governs our personal and public life. The freedom of the iDestiny environment requires a high level of self-management. Any student struggling to make wise choices will receive quick and direct confrontation, which is designed to help draw out the greatness within the student. Our staff and pastoral teams are trained and empowered to apply strength and grace in whichever areas necessary of students' lives. To be eligible to receive a Certificate of Completion, students must meet the following criteria: 1. Satisfactorily complete course requirements (reading 4-5 Books while in school and write book reports, etc). 2. Active participation in outreach and church life. 3. Class attendance requirements fulfilled

Where will I be going on outreach?

We’re aiming to go on one national and one international outreach. The destinations, however, vary from year to year.

Will someone pick me up from the airport?

If you let us know soon enough in advance we might be able to sort you out with a lift. However, we cannot guarantee that. A taxi from the airport to the student house is approx. £20.

Will I need Health insurance?

If you are European, the NHS is free for you, that means as soon as you’re in the UK, you’ll be covered. However you might want extra coverage and choose to get insured privately. However, you will still need travel insurance for the overseas outreach.

What happens after the school?

We’re working on a school for church planters and pioneers at the moment, which will be up and running when the school is finished. Also you might be interested in an internship at King’s Way Church or another Partners in Harvest or Catch the Fire Church.
