  • To help young people to achieve a wider and deeper understanding of different ways of life, forms of thought and cultural heritage

Our Purpose

  • To create an international environment where our students learn about the life and cultural heritage not only of Britain, but also other countries

  • To improve the overall performance of the student’s English by placing special emphasis on communication skills (communicative syllabus)
