Excellent New Facilities
Our English school in Oxford moved into fantastic new premises on Magdalen Street on 25 March 2008 and we are settling in very nicely into this wonderful new space! Students and staff alike are enjoying this stunning state-of-the-art study environment which boasts a study centre, a computer room with 20 flat-screen terminals, all offering free internet access, a well-stocked library and 17 very comfortable and attractive, spacious classrooms. All rooms benefit from natural light and many boast fabulous views of Oxford's historic centre. We are also enjoying the lovely coffee shop downstairs, located right next door to our building.
