„Being a language school we appreciate the cooperation with the British Council. We treat membership in the programme as something really prestigious. The British Council is a reliable institution, recognized all over the world and for us so far a trustworthy partner to cooperate with in the area of international language examinations.”

“Materials, especially in the form of posters, really draw student and visitors’ attention. They raise the level of trust in a school’s performance. Information about the exams in the form of leaflets is sometimes the only source of reliable information about the importance of British examinations for the development of young people’s professional career, especially in the conditions of smaller towns.”
