Each year over 600,000 students come to the UK to learn English. Many are attracted by Britain’s reputation for academic excellence; others are seeking to improve their English before studying at a British University; others choose UK for exciting diverse social activities and also because it is a great base for exploring the rest of Europe after their course.
Whatever their reason, students are spoilt for choice by the great range of English language schools and courses available. Yet selecting a course requires a lot of care and research; unlike other products it is not one that can be sampled beforehand.
There are over 1,000 English language schools in Britain and they vary dramatically in levels of quality. That is why we strongly advise students to choose a school that is recognised by the English in Britain scheme.
There are 375 establishments in the UK that are recognised by the English in Britain scheme. The Scheme is run jointly by English UK, BASELT and British Council - and it is the only steadfast guarantee of quality in the UK. Every aspect of the school’s English language provision has been scrutinised on stringent criteria, which covers teachers, qualifications, class sizes, materials, management, accommodation, student welfare and premises.
