EC English Language Centres has once again won the coveted ST Star Chain School Award, one of the most sought-after accolades in the study/travel industry. This is the third year in a row that EC has taken the prize, and the school’s fourth win of the prestigious award. 

The ST Star Awards recognise and honour language schools that consistently deliver quality service to their students and partners, thereby raising the standards of all schools across the industry. This is the 14th year for the awards, and shortlisted nominees vied for the top spot in 25 categories. Winners are chosen by votes from hundreds of specialists, consultants and professionals who hold years of experience and insight in the business. 

The winners of the highly-respected awards were announced on September 1 at a glittering awards ceremony held at Grosvenor House, AJW Marriott Hotel in London. Nearly 1,200 professionals, delegates and guests from the industry were in attendance to celebrate the event. 

The awards recognise quality

After accepting the award on behalf of the school, EC executive chairman Andrew Mangion said: “We are both excited and humbled to win this award for the fourth time. As a Maltese-owned school, this is a very proud moment for EC. To win this award again confirms that we are on the right track in providing excellence. We remain committed to giving our students the best service and experience, whether they attend our school here in Malta or any of our other locations around the world. This award lets us know that our partners continue to trust in us as an excellent choice for students.”

EC won the ST Star Chain School Award in 2017, 2016 and in 2011, and has been nominated for the award almost every year since 2007.
