About Us
BEET was established by its founder, Clive Barrow, in 1979 with just 3 students! Since that time it’s grown in size but firmly remains an independent, family-run school. We aim to help each and every one of our students to achieve their English language goals in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Our students’ happiness is our priority, they come first!
We operate an open-door policy at all times which means our students are always able to come to us whenever they feel the need. They don’t need an appointment to talk to us; we are always on-hand to help!
Why Choose us?
Our students’ happiness is our top priority! We aim to provide a 5-star service across all aspects of students’ language stays; from the classes to the evening social programme, the welcome they receive from their host family to the atmosphere in the school canteen.
