London Royal Russell

The centre

The prestigious Royal Russell School is set in over 100 acres of green space just outside Croydon: a centre in the immediate vicinity of London that enjoys everything the capital has to offer. The campus is large, private and exclusive, with outstanding facilities for learning and leisure. It is rare to find a centre nestled in the countryside yet so close to London: its safe setting and lively atmosphere make it an ideal place for students who want to have fun and grow.

The language course

The ACE course (Academic ability, Competitive spirit, Energy to succeed) is for B2-C1 level students only. It is a group adventure, entirely in English: international teams, mixed by nationality and level, take on real challenges with an entrepreneurial approach — thinking, analysing and proposing solutions like young entrepreneurs. The goal: to build English alongside entrepreneurial skills and teamwork. It ends with a showcase where each team presents its results.
