English School for Families

A good English school for families is perfect for a family wanting a fun educational holiday. AICOL has been providing English language courses to adults and children for over 25 years. Your independent search will reveal we are one of the best English language schools in Australia.  In addition to our highly regarded English courses for adults,  we have for many years been famous for  our English for Young Learner courses. A great school for kids to learn English. A perfect English school for families! AICOL accept families with children from 6 years of age throughout the year on a visitor or student visa. Children have their own classrooms and eating areas and mix with other international students of approximately the same age.

Lunch area for families

Young kids can go straight to class on arrival or,  if they have been learning English previously,  they can take an AICOL placement test. Adults are tested on arrival and are placed in an English class based on age, nationality and test results.

Adults and children study English on the same timetable, in the same building but in different classes.  All classes, even holiday classes, have a maximum of 15 students with an average class size of 8-12 students. Our English programs for families run 50 weeks of the year, not just in holiday times.  Face-to-face language courses and are presently running.
