A global student community
To date, we have had students travel from over 100 different countries to experience their dream career in the heart of London. In fact, one of the main reasons international students have cited for coming is to meet and befriend students from all around the world, whilst taking their English language skills to the next level. Our programmes are delivered in English and we require a minimum CEFR level of B2 (upper-intermediate) in English in order to attend. This provides a fantastic opportunity for students to practise their English in a professional environment, alongside ambitious and likeminded UK and overseas students.
