The London School of English |

Many thousands of satisfied clients have trained with us over the years. They are very demanding people who have high expectations and want results. We aim to exceed those expectations. We are proud of our full house of strengths with the British Council which reflects our focus on quality and client satisfaction.

In 2024, the London School of English will inaugurate its first residential summer programme for international students aged 15-17. This is an exciting new development in the school's history. The ethos behind the Summer Programme’s design has been to apply our experience and expertise with professional training to young people who are preparing for adulthood. We advertise the following benefits of attending the programme:

• Course participants (CPs) will gain critical and authentic insight into a specific career stream: Business, Global Leadership or Digital Media.
• CPs will experience university life in the centre of London, staying in a UoL residence and studying in the iconic Senate House building.
• CPs will improve their English language proficiency and communication skills.
• CPs will experience life away from home, making new friends, seeing a new city and making new memories.
