Living with a host family is an excellent way to improve your English, and to help you learn more about British culture. We are the only school in Colchester offering accommodation, so we can choose from the very best local families. Many of our students live less than 3km from the school.

Our accommodation team have almost 20 years of experience. CESC's accommodation placement service is FREE: there is no accommodation placement fee.

Some of our host families have worked with us for over 20 years. Many of them have enjoyed excellent relationships with the students who stayed with them, and have even visited them in their home countries afterwards (for weddings, family events, etc). Students even stay with their past host families when they come back to the UK on holidays!
