The New School of English was
established in 1962 and has been recognised by the British Council as efficient for over
25 years. The School is located in a quiet residential street that backs onto the
University Botanic Gardens. The famous city centre and historic university colleges are
fifteen minutes' walk on foot from the School. The train station is very close by, and
there are fast trains every hour to London, King's Cross station. The journey time is 52
minutes.
The School has been teaching English to foreign adults from academic
and corporate sectors for over 35 years, and enjoys the reputation for being very friendly
and professional. Many of the students choose our School as a result of personal
recommendations from previous clients, and we are happy to provide professional references
on request. We focus on individuals rather than groups, and we are proud of the broad
nationality mix and age range that we achieve. In 1996/97 we welcomed students from over
32 countries and the average age of our students was 25.
The School has many useful facilities including a language
laboratory, a self-access study centre/library, video library, and an Information
Technology Centre with computers operating on Windows '95/ Microsoft Office '97. Students
can use Internet facilities and send or receive e-mail/faxes. There is a very comfortable
student common room where students can buy light refreshments, relax and talk.
