"If we can influence the students in our classrooms – hundreds of millions around the world – collectively we might start to have an impact. But we also have to practice what we preach and get our act together at our schools – which is what GSS is all about." @jonathandykes1

[Green Standard Schools @GreenStandardSc]

Is your language school taking action to reduce emissions + negative environmental impact?

Then you might be ready to show the world your environmental credentials with independent accreditation for green language schools!

It's been wonderful to welcome pupils back to ECS, see them gain confidence, connect with each other and nature, and improve their English.

We said goodbye to our last pupils on the weekend – and are already looking forward to next year!
