EAC Young Learners

Edinburgh is one of Europe’s finest cities. It has something to offer everyone whose interests are cultural, historical or social. There are a wealth of places to visit and things to do in Edinburgh, from the elegant Georgian New Town to the maze of alleyways in the Old Town. Edinburgh is a perfect base for exploring the beautiful country of Scotland, which boasts some of the most spectacular and atmospheric countryside in Europe.

The EAC summer school takes place at the superb modern campus of Telford College, a multi-million pound award winning development on the banks of the Firth of Forth with commanding views out to Fife only 3 miles from Edinburgh city centre. Telford College opened in September 2006 and the facilities it boasts are at the cutting edge for educational institutions in the UK. Bright and modern, with a spacious contemporary food hall at its centre, the college has exceptional computing facilities which EAC students will be able to take full advantage of. Students will also be able to use the fabulous sports hall and dance studios. The brand new residence sleeps 110 in single en-suite accommodation and is adjacent to the main college building
