Why Choose CIE?

Study in Small, Focused Groups

During the academic year, our classes have a maximum of either 4 or 8 students—often half the size of groups at most other schools. Your skills will improve quickly in our small classes.

Study in the City Centre

CIE's Bocardo House is in the centre of Oxford, opposite the world-famous Oxford Union. Our busy summer school is also held in city centre facilities, such as Oxford University's Lady Margaret Hall, near the University Parks.

Study with Personal Support

CIE's close family atmosphere throughout the academic year helps to make intensive study easier and much more pleasant. From our reception staff, to our teachers, to our principal, everyone will know your name. Long-term students are assigned a personal tutor to monitor your progress and answer any questions you may have.
