Students will be tested to decide the best class level for their needs. We stream English Proficiency into groups of Beginner, Elementary (A1) and (A2)  Intermediate and Upper Intermediate (B1) & (B2) and Advanced and Proficiency English groups (C1 and C2). Students at C1 and C2 level can be placed on to our fluent speaker programme.

Fluent Speaker Programme

Students who are proficient English speakers at C1 and C2 level or equivalent, will follow a classroom-based programme of engaging topic work in English as opposed to the programme of English language lessons that our other students will follow in the mornings.

Project Classes
