This year's PRELIM project may be over, but that doesn't mean the learning and the benefits have stopped.

Our most immediate priority is to achieve Educational Oversight status for the Accreditation UK scheme.

PRELIM 2, the British Council-funded scheme pairing accredited ELT centres with English Teacher Associations (ETAs) all over the world has now wound up for the year and report writing is under way.

We are pleased to announce the signing of a renewed partnership agreement between English UK and the British Council which extends the arrangements for the joint management of the Accreditation UK scheme until the end of December 2025.

We are very grateful to our member centres which have offered free courses to RefuAid's refugee and asylum seeker clients since 2015, enabling over 600 people to continue their education or careers in this country.
