Fettes

Centre for Language & Culture

Welcome to Fettes Centre for Language & Culture (FCLC Edinburgh), a boutique English Language School at Fettes College, Edinburgh, Scotland. We are a forward thinking, dynamic school with an open mind on development and our mission is to enrich our students’ lives by enhancing their lifelong learning through a high quality, thought-provoking EFL programme that not only makes them more confident users of the language but also broadens their horizons and promotes kindness as well as instilling respect and acceptance of others.

Unfortunately, due to international travel and social distancing restrictions, FCLC 2021 will not take place. We look forward to seeing you in 2022.

About

FCLC Edinburgh

Established in 2006 and accredited by the British Council in our second year of operation, our programme is based at the beautiful and historic Fettes College and is specifically designed to give students the maximum opportunity to learn, develop and practise English in meaningful contexts. The combination of lessons, activities, arts and crafts, sports, projects, excursions and workshops helps students develop lifelong friendships within a safe and nurturing environment and means that they are never left to their own devices. We believe constant stimulation means constant learning.

An amazing

place to learn a language

Whether you arrive at Edinburgh International Airport or one of its two major train stations, you don’t have far to come before you are welcomed to Fettes College by our friendly team. We are just 25 minutes by coach from the airport and 15 minutes from each train station.

Fettes College is situated in 90 acres of private parkland just 15 minutes from Edinburgh’s world famous castle and city centre. There is so much to see and do in our amazing city that whenever possible, we share this with our students. We have it all, from museums to castles, shopping to palaces, botanical gardens to breathtaking views and that is all before the world’s largest international arts and culture festival begins in Edinburgh, just in time for week 6 of our programme.
