History
History
Our Leeds summer school takes place at The University of Law campus, located right in the heart of the city. Unlike Oxford’s leafy Headington, here you’ll experience a truly urban setting – just a short walk from shops, cafés, historic landmarks, and Leeds’ vibrant city centre.
The University of Law itself has a long tradition, dating back to 1876, and is now one of the UK’s most respected providers of legal education. Today, the Leeds campus hosts both British and international students, offering a professional and welcoming environment for study. For CES, it becomes the perfect base for our summer school, giving you the chance to learn English in a modern university building while being surrounded by the lively atmosphere of Leeds.
