This year you can also join our online English classes and form an international bubble. You will enjoy online classes with students from all over the world. These courses are designed especially for students aged 14-17 and include an exciting range of online activities and virtual excursions.  We are keeping our classes small and will make sure you have the Isca experience in a virtual world!

You can choose to join our:

• part-time or full-time General English courses with exciting workshops and break out rooms to make sure you communicate a lot with your classmates

Coming to Isca is about learning as much English as you can and enjoying yourself too. We include excursions, activities and sports in all of our programmes so that you can have fun with the new international friends you will make here.

At this family-run school, every individual is important to us. We provide our students with a high level of care in a friendly and safe environment. We are passionate about teaching you English in a communicative way and helping you develop the language and global skills you will need for your future life in the 21^st century.

You will learn English in small, multi-national classes with our qualified, creative teachers. Take our online English language placement test before starting your course and begin learning English on your first morning. No wasted time testing everyone on the first day, at Isca!

You will live in a welcoming local home in Exeter, an invaluable immersion experience for learning more about English life, social English, British culture – and food! Sarah, the Principal, visits and carefully selects each of our homes herself.

The Isca School of English is a British Council accredited English language school.  We have specialised in teaching English to teenagers from all over the world since we welcomed our first students in 1966.

We look forward to welcoming you here too.
