"Having worked alongside UKLC for many years, I am happy to say that this organisation has my complete trust. The educational programmes they offer are of a high-quality standard and they always try to accommodate the needs of each group of students. In particular, their residential summer courses for young learners have a great mix of nationalities and an excellent programme of extra-curricular activities and excursions. Furthermore, in the past UKLC staff have been very welcoming and always willing to help our students and group leaders." Schola, Spain


We pride ourselves on our strong relationships with partner agencies. We understand that agents need high quality partners in the UK in order to gain satisfied clients who will generate word of mouth marketing on their return home. Our relationship is built on trust; we strive to ensure the safety of your students and group leaders is the priority throughout all of our centres. We understand that the success of our business is inseparable from the success of the agents we work with. We will work with you to create attractive marketing material to sell our courses. We help with the details of getting groups to our schools; supporting you during the visa application process and finding the most cost-effective transfers from each airport. Because of agent demand, in 2014 we are delighted to open a further 2 new centres in the south of England - Ardingly College (between Brighton and London) and Plymouth College. These excellent boarding schools mean we can meet our customers’ demand for quality programmes across the UK.

Tuition All our standard UK residential English language courses include 15 hours per week of English classes from Monday to Friday (groups arriving mid-week will recover the extra lessons by doing an afternoon session, usually in the form of a town trail). All our classes have a maximum of 15 students per class and we ensure all language levels contain the minimum possible age range. All students receive a UKLC attendance certificate and report at the end of the course. We use a Task Based Learning approach to our lessons which aims to engage the students’ interest and ignite a passion and enthusiasm for the language. There is a great focus on speaking and our priority is to increase their confidence and enjoyment of learning. We also include preparation and follow-up classes related to the excursions as a key part of the curriculum and, in addition, students work together with their teacher on a course project, using appropriate technology such as computers and cameras, which forms the basis of a final performance at the end of their stay. Our teachers are all qualified and are recruited for their passion and enthusiasm for the teaching of English and their desire to teach young learners. We offer support and training to all our staff to help ensure that they deliver the best quality service to our students. Placement Tests We offer classes at four levels from Elementary to Upper Intermediate. Students are given a placement test on their first day of classes to ensure they are placed at the correct level. Examinations We offer the option of taking Trinity College Spoken English exams on-site for courses of 10 days or longer. Sports and activities We provide a wide mix of exciting sports and activities up to 4 afternoons a week, both indoors and outdoors, including football, tennis, archery, swimming, music, art, drama, dance, indoor climbing, golf, volleyball, waterpolo, indoor caving and much more.
