Partner Schools
We currently have partnerships in 51 countries around the world, and an ability to source, create and build new partnerships on demand.
Our partner schools are all centres of language learning excellence in their own right. They have been working with Cactus for a number of years, have been visited and inspected, and provide ongoing feedback form Cactus students as part of a rigorous quality assurance programme. Cactus, through its 3 divisions – Language Training, Language Courses Abroad, and Teacher Training – has carefully selected its partner organizations and trainers in order to give the company a truly global reach.
All trainers will be experienced, qualified native speakers. All schools and trainers follow a unified approach to methodology, progress assessment and quality assurance.
