Surreynanny,
Simon Butler Skiing does instructional holidays in Megève, France. They creep in just under £500 for the April week, but there is a 30% single supplement. However, the week after is £400 with no single supplement (if I'm reading the info on their site correctly).

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I think that the SCGB do trips for 'young persons', as I believe they're called. Whether they do them for beginners and at the time and price that would suit your sister in law, I don't know. TOs often offer special learn to ski weeks, with all in packages of lessons and kit in beginner friendly resorts.

Surreynanny, she could try Oak Hall. They would welcome her. They are very reasonably priced (and fairly basic), but they are a very friendly bunch and welcome singles (though she would probably have to share with other girls her age). They offer ski lessons and equipment http://www.oakhall.co.uk/pages/winter07.asp Cheapest would be the overnight coach, but you can fly to most of their places too. They are a Christian based organisation, but it would be easy for her to avoid the religious bit if that if it wasn't to her liking.

I don't know if the Ski Club of GB ever do beginner holidays. Certainly there are none among those holidays still to happen this year.

ucpa.com might be worth a look.
Accomodation is similar to that of a Hostel (2 bunk beds in a VERY small room) but it is full board, lessons, lift pass and equipment all included in the price, no flights or transfers though.

FAQ
She is really p*** off as she was so looking forward to going. I just wondered if anyone knew a holiday that sort of did a learn to ski package as she would be on her own and only 17, during Feb 18th week or after 5th April. she has never skiied before so doesn't need abig resort but very few funds as the collage trip was only £500 all inclusive and tuition. WE could help her a little but we don't have much to add either as we have just paid for our holiday.
