London - english courses in London, english schools in London

A Total English Language Learning Experience at our School means much more than simply language instruction. It also means enjoying the culture, history and social setting of English in the language's birthplace - England! The Burlington School provides an extensive programme of leisure and cultural activities throughout the year, organised by our Leisure Programme Co-ordinator. Activities are many and varied and, while some are free, a small additional payment is required for certain events. Please see one of our social programme sample pages to see the different activities we offer our students.

The School organises a range of afternoon and evening activities accompanied by staff members. Activities include: pub nights, video evenings and parties, which encourage students to socialise in English. Various other events provide unique opportunities for students to learn about other cultures, while trips to London’s West End shows keep students in touch with the British way of life. We also organise sports activities. Our leisure programme changes monthly to cater for students' interests and requirements.

The School offers day trips and favourite destinations in London include Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London and The Victoria and Albert Museum. Further away, students visit locations such as Oxford, Cambridge, Stonehenge and Brighton. Weekend trips abroad may also be arranged from time to time to places such as Amsterdam and Paris. All excursions are accompanied to provide language support and to guide the students around places of interest.
