Description

Founded in 1992, Chaucer College is a British Council-accredited language school with over 27 years of experience in teaching English as a foreign language at our study centre in Canterbury, Kent – ‘The Garden of England’.

Located within minutes of the city centre, our campus is private and secure, set within its own grounds, offering on-site residential accommodation, classrooms and a dining room in one enclosed facility. Alternatively, students can choose to stay with any of our long-standing host families. Safety is of the utmost importance to us, with a porter on duty 24 hours a day, along with 24-hour monitored security camera surveillance.

With a teaching capacity of up to 300 students (maximum 14 students per class), our campus also boasts a student common room with leisure facilities, playing fields, other sports facilities and a basketball court. Wi-Fi is available all throughout the campus and in residential accommodations.

With direct access to London within 1 hour by road or high-speed rail, we are perfectly positioned to explore what the South East of England offers.

Chaucer College delivers a range of English language courses throughout the year to groups (minimum age 9 years) and individual students (aged 16 years +). We offer a range of courses in general English (standard and intensive programmes), exam preparation, teacher training, school immersion programmes and business and corporate training. During the summer, we run a popular Junior Summer Camp for students aged 11 – 17.

Chaucer College is also the registered test centre in Kent for the IELTS academic examination.
