IELTS Preparation
Our IELTS Preparation courses are very popular with students who wish to do academic study at a college or university in the UK and need to take the IELTS test.
Special English courses
We can offer bespoke English Language courses for groups. These courses can be tailored in length and content to suit the particular needs of the group. Should you wish to discuss bringing a special group to study English with us at a particular time of the year, please contact us.
Social activities
The social programme enables students to visit new places and to help them make new friends. Each term the programme includes organised excursions to places of interest such as Stratford, York and Cambridge. We also organise sporting activities, party nights and discos.
Enrichment
All full-time students in the college can take part in the Enrichment programme, which offers free activities and courses on a Wednesday afternoon. The activities range from sports, to arts and crafts, and even first aid.
