International award for EC Malta

Maltese-owned EC English Language Centres’ flagship school in Malta was recently named English School of the Year at the ESL Language Travel Awards in Barcelona.

Established in 1996, ESL is one of the industry’s study abroad agencies, originating in Switzerland but now boasting 58 offices all over Europe as well as in Panama and Colombia.

This year’s edition of the awards saw some of the top players in the language travel industry come together to recognise and celebrate excellence and commitment to a quality student experience.

The nominees and winners for each award category were selected based on feedback gathered directly from students and staff throughout the year.

EC’s executive chairman Andrew Mangion said that although the school had grown a strong, international presence, at its core it remained true to the same family values his mother had established when they took their first bold steps into the international language travel industry.
