CES

CES, short for Centre of English Studies, is an English language teaching organisation that has been operating for more than four decades. It was founded in 1979 in Dublin, Ireland, and has grown from a single school into a group of nine year-round international English language schools located across Ireland, England, Scotland, and Canada. The schools are family-run, and the organisation describes its core values as Care, Excellence, and Success. The group's schools are located in Dublin, Cork, London, Worthing, Oxford, Leeds, Edinburgh, Toronto, and Vancouver. CES offers a wide range of English-language courses and programmes for adults, juniors, and groups, combining classroom teaching with social programmes, cultural experiences, and homestay or residential accommodation. Its most popular course is Standard General English, and it also provides a full range of adult courses. CES emphasises the quality of its teaching staff. In England, all teachers hold at least a Trinity TESOL or Cambridge CELTA qualification, with many holding specialist EFL teaching diplomas and degrees. In Ireland, all teachers hold a university degree plus an ACELS-recognised teaching qualification, and many also hold specialist EFL qualifications such as DELTA. Teaching staff in the two Canadian centres are likewise described as highly qualified. The organisation is recognised and accredited by the British Council in England and by ACELS (the Irish Department of Education) in Ireland. CES Ireland is a founding member of Marketing English in Ireland (MEI). In 2007, CES was awarded 'Star English Language School in Europe' in the category of schools with four centres or less, and it was shortlisted for the same award every year between 2008 and 2011, making it the only school to have been nominated for the award for five consecutive years. CES recruits staff across teaching, tutoring, administration, accommodation, admissions, finance, human resources, marketing, sales, social activity programme leadership, and student services. Its schools welcome adult and junior students from around the world, and the organisation positions itself on combining high-quality teaching with real-life local cultural experience.

CES, or Centre of English Studies, was founded in 1979 in Dublin, Ireland. From its origins as a single school, it grew over more than four decades into a group of nine year-round international English language schools. The organisation describes itself as family-run, with roots that have grown over time. The group expanded beyond Ireland into England, Scotland, and Canada. Its current locations include Dublin and Cork in Ireland; London, Worthing, Oxford, Leeds, and Edinburgh in the United Kingdom; and Toronto and Vancouver in Canada. This spread across three regions allowed CES to offer students a choice of destinations while maintaining a common approach to teaching and student experience. A significant recognition came in 2007, when CES was awarded 'Star English Language School in Europe' in the category of schools with four centres or less. It was shortlisted for the same award every year between 2008 and 2011, and the organisation notes that it is the only school to have been nominated for this award for five consecutive years. CES has also built a framework of accreditation and industry involvement. It is recognised and accredited by the British Council in England and by ACELS, the Irish Department of Education, in Ireland. CES Ireland is a founding member of Marketing English in Ireland (MEI). Over the years, the organisation has developed a comprehensive set of courses for adults, juniors, and groups, supported by social programmes, cultural experiences, and accommodation options including homestay and residential. It recruits qualified teaching staff across its regions, with minimum qualifications such as Trinity TESOL or Cambridge CELTA in England and university degrees plus ACELS-recognised teaching qualifications in Ireland, alongside specialist qualifications like DELTA. The group continues to operate its schools and welcome students from around the world.
