How can I be sure that the English course I choose is of good quality?
The British Council operates an accreditation scheme to ensure set standards in English Language teaching.
• The 'English in Britain' Accreditation scheme (EiBA) is the only internationally recognised scheme for private schools and children's courses operating in the UK.
• There are over 370 accredited English language centres around the UK. All accredited centres are inspected by the British Council and meet specific quality standards.
Courses offered by universities and colleges of further education are routinely checked by government education inspectors.
