Summary statement

The British Council inspected and accredited Central Language School Cambridge in May 2022. The Accreditation Scheme assesses the standards of management, resources and premises, teaching, welfare, and safeguarding under 18s and accredits organisations which meet the overall standard in each area inspected (see www.britishcouncil.org/education/accreditation for details). This private language school offers courses in general English for adults (18+) in school premises. This was a compliance-only inspection during which the inspectors focused only on whether inspection criteria were met or not met. Inspectors did not evaluate the extent to which requirements were exceeded and no strengths were awarded. No new summary statement has been issued; please refer to the last inspection report for any areas of strength previously awarded. The inspection report stated that the organisation met the standards of the Scheme.

Introduction

Central Language School Cambridge was founded as a charitable trust in 1996 by a group of Christians wishing to establish a Christian language school in Cambridge. The school promotes its ethos but welcomes students of all faiths and none. Most students are recruited directly with a high percentage of them coming as a result of personal recommendation. The maximum class size is ten students. The former principal retired in September 2020 and her role was split between the director of studies (DoS) and the business manager. The part-time accommodation officer also left employment in 2020, as well as a small number of teachers. This compliance-only inspection took the equivalent of one day and a part day over two days and was conducted remotely. Meetings were held with the DoS and the business manager. Separate focus group meetings were held with teachers and students. Both teachers timetabled to teach during the inspection were observed by both inspectors. The inspectors were sent a video tour of the premises in advance of the inspection, and one inspector carried out remote visits of two homestays and spoke to two hosts.

Address of main site/head office

41 St Andrew's Street, Cambridge CB2 3AR

Description of sites observed

The school is located in a building adjacent to St Andrew’s Baptist Church in central Cambridge. The entrance to classrooms is through a door at the side of the church and up a set of stairs. On the first floor there are two classrooms. There is a social area at the back of the larger classroom with a sliding door opening up to merge what used to be a separate social room. The smaller classroom has a self-study area for students and also houses the school’s teaching resources. On the third floor, an attic room is used as a classroom during peak summer months. There is a lift between the ground and first floors. The church hall at the rear of the first floor is hired by the school for social and sports activities when required. The hall has a stage and a kitchen. The two school offices located on the first floor are reached by a separate staircase from the ground floor. There are unisex toilets on the ground and first floors.

Comments

The school offers general English morning courses of 15 hours per week, Monday to Friday, and general English afternoon courses of six hours per week, Tuesday to Thursday. Students requiring an intensive programme can enrol on both courses, making a total of 21 hours’ tuition per week. One-to-one tuition is occasionally offered but was not running at the time of the inspection.

Management profile

The school is a charitable trust, overseen by a board of trustees and run by the DoS and the business manager. The DoS is responsible for the academic programme and managing the teachers, and is supported by the senior teacher. The business manager coordinates day-to-day non-academic management including welfare, admissions and enrolments, finance, accommodation, marketing and the leisure programme.

Report expires 31 March 2027

Accommodation profile

The school offers various categories of homestay accommodation: half board, bed and breakfast and self-catering. Fewer than 40 per cent of the students at the school use homestay accommodation. Most students either stay with family and friends or rent their own accommodation. The list of registered hosts is comparatively small and many of the hosts have been with the school for many years. There is a good degree of loyalty to the school as many hosts do not accept students from other organisations.

Report expires 31 March 2027

Comments

The goals and values of the school are very clearly articulated by managers, as well as being expressed within school documentation. Objectives are appropriately focused, monitored and measured. The structure of the organisation is clear and communicated to all stakeholders, so that everyone knows who is responsible for particular areas. Communication is effective and is both formal and informal. Staff and student feedback is collected and recorded effectively and acted upon appropriately.

Staff management and development Met

M8 The provider implements appropriate human resources policies, which are made known to staff.

Met

M9 The provider specifies the duties of all staff working with ELT students, and regularly reviews these.

Met

M10 There are effective procedures for the recruitment and selection of all staff. Not met

Met

M13 There are effective procedures to ensure the continuing professional development of all staff to meet the needs of the individual, the students and the organisation.

Met

Comments

Human resources policies and practices are appropriate and in place, including detailed up-to-date job descriptions and signed contracts. Recruitment procedures are effective in the main, although one staff file was found to only have one reference. Induction is thorough and recorded. Appraisal processes are clearly laid out in handbooks, implemented appropriately and are both developmental and target based. All staff are given opportunities for continuing professional development.

Student administration Met

M14 Staff are helpful and courteous to students and their representatives, and provide satisfactory levels of customer service.

Met

M15 Students or their representatives receive sufficient information and advice on their course choices before arrival and during their stay.

Met

M16 Staff carry out enrolment, cancellation and refund procedures efficiently, fairly, and with appropriate sensitivity.

Met

M17 There are effective systems in place to maintain accurate and up-to-date records of student enrolment, payment and course details. These records are accessible at all times to authorised staff.

Met

Comments

Feedback indicates that students are very happy with the levels of customer service provided by the school. They receive useful information and advice on their course choices through the website and through personalised communication. Enrolments and cancellations are carried out efficiently, and are supported by an effective IT system, ensuring that enrolment records are up to date and accurate. Records of local and emergency contact for students are kept, but at the time of inspection, two students were missing an emergency contact. This was rectified during the inspection, and is therefore no longer a point to be addressed. In addition, enrolment records do not show whether or not the emergency contact speaks English, and this remains a point to be addressed. The policy on attendance is not clear about how absence is followed up. Complaints procedures are appropriate and made well known to students.

Met

Comments

Teachers are well matched to courses and supported to work with the classes they are assigned to. The timetabling of teachers and cover arrangements are formalised and effectively carried out by the DoS. While continuous enrolment is managed adequately in the classroom, advice and support in this area for less experienced teachers should be increased. There is very effective day-to-day support available to teachers both from the DoS and the senior teacher. Observations are carried out regularly and provide teachers with useful developmental feedback.

Course design and implementation Met

T11 Course design is based on stated principles. There is a coherent and appropriate course structure described in writing for teachers’ guidance.

Met

Met

T16 Courses include strategies which help students to develop their language skills outside the classroom and benefit linguistically from their stay in the UK.

Met

Comments

Course design is clearly understood by the academic team, and teachers are provided with appropriate guidance in their handbook and from the DoS and senior teacher. There is a clear rationale for course design, and it fits with the needs of the students. Schemes of work are developed and shared with students with very clear student outcomes identified. While lessons do incorporate the development of independent learning strategies, they are not specified in the scheme of work.

Comprehensive risk assessments and fire safety measures are in place at the school and students receive a very high level of pastoral care and support through clear simple systems. There is a major incident plan, but it lacked detail on locating and communicating with students in the event of a major incident in their locality. When this was brought to the attention of management, they amended the information provided so this is no longer a point to be addressed. Policies to promote tolerance and respect are readily available and written in accessible language. Relevant aspects of life in the UK are covered including access to adequate health care information.
