About Our English Language Schools in the UK | ELC Schools

Welcome

How can we help? We know there’s no substitute for talking to a real person, and we’re here behind the scenes making sure your language learning experience happens in the best possible way. So please contact us if you’d like to start a conversation about coming to England or find out more about what we do, who we are and why we care.

In the meantime, here’s some information about us to get you started.

We hope to see you, and talk to you soon.

Our story

It takes a long time to be this good. Find out how it all started.

A lovely old black and white photo of two female teachers standing in the entrance way to the old teachers' room in ELC in Brighton. They are strongly silhouetted by the sun shining in through the windows and the relief and intricate scalloped ceiling mouldings can be seen in sharp relief.

Our mission

Find out why we do what we do, and why we care so much about ELC.

Caring for under 18s

We have a special duty of care for students who are under 18 years of age. Here's what we do and how we help.

A teenager stands in front off a blurred background of a Brighton street. She's looking off screen up and to her left. She has a pale blue T-shirt on and black headphones around her neck. She might be attending a summer English course for teenagers in Brighton.

Quality assurance

We are members of a number of organisations that help ensure we continue to work to very high standards.
