Our Prize Englis Edimburgh School of English, has an unbeatable location on the Royal Mile, between the Castle and Holyrood Palace, handy for all the main sites in the city as well as being close to the main areas for eating, drinking and socialising such as the Grassmarket, Cowgate or Cockburn Street.
The school is well known in the city as it was established more than 40 years ago, and has an excellent reputation for its English courses, due to the high quality offered by the staff as well as the excellent social and cultural programme that the school offers its students.
The school attracts an excellent mix of students from all over the world, and has won awards for being one of the best Language Schools in the UK.
The main building is a renovated Victorian church, as is fitting in this well preserved part of Edinburgh's old town.
The classrooms are modern and bright and there is also a students' common room and study area.
Just opposite the school there are many cafes and takeaway sandwich and food shops for our students and teachers to grab a bite to eat before the afternoon social and cultural programme begins.
