Purley Language College

You can study with us for a short time, for example 1 week, or for a long time, for example 1 year. Groups of children, teenagers and adults come from more than 25 countries to study English in the school. Accredited by the British Council and inspected by England's Independent Schools Inspectorate.

I am very happy about this experience. I have loved it. Now I can talk english better and easily than before, and I have learned a lot of new things. I will never forget what I have learned in this week. Just THANK YOU! Also a big thank you to my host family and Elaine, I love you and I will never forget you.

Does the College organise trips and activities? A. Yes. These cost between 5 pounds (for example, sports in the park) and 60 pounds (full day trips to Stonehenge and Bath). Does the College organise a summer camp? We have a kids summer camp and a teenagers summer camp. Kids and teenagers stay in local host families and can be dropped off to school in the morning by their family and picked up by car at the end of the day.

Usually lessons take place in the morning and activities in the afternoon and on Saturday. We also do sports in the park and go to famous places like Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, Stonehenge, Canterbury and the Harry Potter studios. Usually holiday courses are available in summer and around Easter, but we can organise at other times of the year, especially if you are a group.

The College is situated in the centre of Purley, a pleasant residential town in the county of Surrey, on the south side of London approximately 12 miles from the heart of London. The College is very close to Purley railway station from where there is a frequent train service to London. The journey takes about 20 minutes.
