Learning Environment

LILA is a family run school located in the exciting city of London. We have a reputation of being a forward-thinking and student-centred school, pushing boundaries with our contemporary facilities and academic standards. Our modern and comfortable school is in central London and sits in the peaceful, unique location of Canada Water. Students love to hang-out in the cool environment of Canada Water, a rare haven of lakes, canals and parks. As this is a largely residential and student area students have the peace they need to study English during the day, yet are just minutes from the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street and Bond Street. With beautiful waterways and parks (no cars or traffic!), shops, cafes and restaurants right on our doorstep it really is the perfect location to study in.
