Burlington School Of English:
Burlington School is a British Council accredited school, and one of the most popular and well-established English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Schools in London. The school is situated in Fulham, a short distance from the River Thames and Parsons Green Underground station. We believe the School building is very attractive, with its pleasant classrooms, student lounge, library and self-study facilities. Central London's tourist, cultural and business areas are only 15 minutes away by London Underground (the 'Tube'), or by car. London's Heathrow Airport is 20 minutes away by taxi or 40 minutes by Underground. The School is close to homestay accommodation, recreation facilities and numerous shops and restaurants.

To get to Parsons Green you need to take the District Line. Please remember that Parsons Green is located on the Wimbledon part of the District Line. If you are coming from central London, take any west-bound District line train. If it goes to Wimbledon, then just stay on the train until you reach Parsons Green; otherwise change at Earls Court for the Wimbledon line. It takes about 30 minutes to reach Parsons Green from Victoria station.
The School is also easily accessible by buses number 14, 414 and 424. Frequent traditional red buses stop on Fulham Road just outside the School. Number 14 travels all the way from Putney Heath to central London (Tottenham Court Road Underground station).
Courses:General English, Business English, specialist English classes, summer course for teenagers aged 14 and 15, Year-round closed-group courses for juniors aged 8 to 15, Homestay programme
Accommodation:The Burlington School aims to offer the best possible accommodation
to all of our students. Our Accommodation Desk has written contractual
agreements with all of our homestay families, and all accommodation is
inspected to ensure the highest standards.
You may choose to live with an English-speaking family in their home.
'English-speaking family', as used here, usually means a husband and
wife, or a husband and wife with children, living in the same house.
However, there are many families which have one adult and child or an
adult (usually a landlady) living alone. Certain host family homestay
accommodation is of an exceptional high standard, and for these homes
the category of homestay plus applies. Or, you may prefer
independent accommodation, either in a separate part of a family home,
or in a house with other students, but no landlord on the premises.
The School can place students where there is no English family, and
students live with other students and share common amenities. This type
of self-catering accommodation is referred to as Independent Accommodation
- and involves sharing a house and amenities without the landlord
living on the premises. Some of the rooms are single but there is the
possibility to share a room with a number of other independent
students.
Facilities:Classrooms are pleasant and suitably equipped. The Burlington School
also has: video facilities, a number of computers with broadband
internet access and e-mail for students' use, a library, with its own
self-study facilities, where students may borrow books and cassettes
and a spacious coffee bar, serving full meals and snacks, with piano
for students' use. In addition, students can borrow tapes and listening
equipment for self-study use. The coffee bar is a favourite place for
students to relax during breaks or during one of the School's parties
or film evenings.
The lounge is a favourite place for students to relax during breaks or during one of the School's frequent parties. It is non-smoking.
School events such as parties and film evenings are part of the School leisure programme, and take place in the lounge.
