ENJOY A QUALITY LEARNING EXPERIENCE IN THE UK

Accreditation UK is a quality assurance scheme for UK schools, colleges, and universities offering courses in English as a Foreign Language (EFL).

Our aim is to make sure that students studying at accredited centres are protected and enjoy a quality learning experience in the UK.

Why choose an accredited centre

We guarantee standards in management, teaching, resources and welfare offered at accredited centres in the UK, and we regularly inspect centres to ensure that services and facilities continue to be of a high standard. Find out more.
