About the School
Founded in Dublin, Ireland in 1979, CES has grown into an international language school with 9 year-round centers in Ireland, the UK, Scotland and Canada. With more than 40 years of experience and expertise, we teach English to students from around the world. CES started as a family-run school and has grown steadily. We are proud of our history, we are grateful to every student who has been with us so far, and we are happy to welcome the new students who will join us in the future. At all CES schools in Ireland, the UK and Canada, teachers are selected not only for their experience, but also for their enthusiastic and positive attitude and their ability to make language learning enjoyable. All CES schools offer homestay accommodation, and on request, some schools also offer alternative accommodation options such as residences and hotel stays. CES has won numerous awards recognized by independent external organizations such as Study Travel Magazine (worldwide), Languagecourses.Net (worldwide), Ryugaku Journal (Japan) and **UED (Turkey)**. All schools except Vancouver also offer IELTS, Cambridge and OET exams.
