Noticeably, WSE is the first English school in the UK to receive the perfect score of 15 out of 15 as inspected by the British Council (the average score is 4.05). The inspection strictly looks at 15 different aspects, namely: Academic staff profile, Academic management, Accommodation, Care of students, Care of under-18s, Course design, Learner management, Learning resources, Leisure opportunities, Premises & facilities, Publicity, Quality assurance, Staff management, Student administration, and Teaching. Second, WSE.
In addition, WSE is proud to offer the best courses in proportion with the price according to El Gazette. Our standard English courses have 20 hours per week, compared to London’s average of only 15 hours. Our courses also cost below London’s average cost per hour. Plus, we have free extra learning opportunities, daily guided self-study sessions, and access to our e-learning platform “e-Wimbledon” for 3 months before and after courses.
Located in Wimbledon, the school has a relaxing country feel, with its large garden, but is still only 20 mins by train to London’s City Centre. Students could not only enjoy the greenery but also experience the modern city life.
Students who come here will not only improve their English quickly, but will have an experience of a lifetime. Therefore, in our school, there is a multimedia study centre, free Wi-Fi, a common room, a snack bar & coffee shop, a film & reading library, a piano, table tennis & table football, a big garden, which all provide students with a warm and relaxing atmosphere throughout the day. After the lessons, students are welcome to join our social events, including a selection of free sports, guided tours, free museum visits, international student parties, and excursions to other cities.
Another aspect that WSE places a high premium on is student accommodations. We have carefully selected a wide range of accommodation options with 250+ host families and 4 student houses based on individual needs. The maximum journey time from the accommodations to WSE is 25 minutes. We try our best to offer safe, convenient, and intercultural living experiences to our students.

It was very good, and the best thing about the school is honestly the teachers. They are very friendly, kind and respectful.
My classmates were also great, I keep in touch with them even though I’m not in the school anymore.
Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying English in London. These homes are often around 25 minutes away from the school by public transport. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance. Your housing starts on the Sunday before your first day of class and ends on the Saturday after your last day of class, unless otherwise noted. Learn more about homestay housing

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.
If you are studying in the UK for over 11 months, you will receive a reference number called a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) that you need to submit to the UK embassy along with your General Student Visa application. Students who have successfully booked a language course and have paid their fees will receive a CAS from WSE. Please note that UK law states that a CAS can only be issued to students who intend to pursue English language studies for over 11 months.
If you are studying in the UK for 11 months or less, you have to apply for a special visitor visa called a Student Visitor Visa. As a student visitor, you will not be able to work part-time while studying. If you plan to study in the UK for 11 months or less, a letter of acceptance will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged £ 100 when you register.
