Devon School Of English

About

The Devon School of English is a friendly, family-run school that has been welcoming international students to this beautiful part of England for over 40 years.

Story

In a quiet residential area, just a short walk from the beach and the park, the Devon School of English has been providing high quality English tuition for over 40 years. Its two Victorian buildings - the red stone Old Vicarage and The Glendale - have been lovingly adapted to house 19 bright and appealing classrooms, 2 student common rooms, coffee bars, computer rooms and a self-access library. Outside, mature trees and hedges envelop the schools’ private gardens and patios, attractive places to sit and talk with new friends or peaceful places to read and reflect.

Mission

‘‘We have created a school with a happy, friendly and relaxed atmosphere where learning English is a real pleasure’’ - Brian Hawthorne, Founder & Principal

Our Educational Policy

At the Devon School of English, we believe that language is best acquired when it is used meaningfully in situations that you can relate to and enjoy. Our courses respond to your interests, needs and professional or academic contexts and are based on the belief that fluency comes from confidence and pleasure in the language and language learning.

We believe that your English learning extends beyond the classroom into your time outside of the school which is why we take great care to ensure that the social programme and your stay with local families form an important part of our curriculum and perform a significant role in your language learning.
