Over the years the school has built up a reputation for professionalism and academic excellence. We have a staff of highly qualified and experienced teachers, and General and Professional English courses are held in our two year-round centers – Palmerston Park and Milltown Park.

Academic Year Programmes

Flexibility is key when it comes to our Academic Year programmes. Our expert staff design a study path to suit each student's starting level, academic needs and learning objectives. Academic mentors, class teachers and the Director of Studies monitor the progress of all of our Academic Year Students. The programme allows students to combine different courses and modules and our team is always on hand to help students identify the best path for them. Students enrolled in the Academic Year Programme usually begin in our Intensive Course to gain a firm grounding in general English skills. After that, students of an appropriate level can take part in our other 20-hour courses, such as Cambridge and IELTS Examination.
