Language that Unlocks Academic Success
At Earlscliffe, we believe that language should never be the limiting factor in a student’s academic success.
Our English Centre of Excellence provides specialist English provision designed specifically for international students studying the British curriculum. More than just exam preparation, our programme offers a rich, immersive and personalised approach to English that empowers students to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
Official test centre for both Cambridge and IELTS examinations

As an accredited Cambridge centre, the school can offer students the opportunity to sit these exams right here on campus, removing the stress and disruption of travelling to external test centres.
Our English Centre of Excellence focuses on developing:
- English for Academic Purposes (EAP)
- Subject-specific terminology
- Academic writing and argument
- Examination technique
- Confident spoken English
This holistic approach ensures students can fully access their GCSE and A-level subjects, express their ideas clearly, and perform at their true academic potential.
Language learning at Earlscliffe is designed to be immersive, dynamic and deeply relevant. Under the leadership of Miss Lana Golubeva, the English Language Centre of Excellence has been expanded to not only teach English, but to bring it vividly to life.
