Learning Spanish
Learning Spanish in the UK: Cervantes Institute
You can learn Spanish at the
Cervantes Institute in London, a public institution founded in 1991 to promote and encourage Spanish and Latin-American culture. There are three Institutes based in Leeds, London and Manchester.
Studying Spanish
Children of Spanish nationals can attend the Instituto
Vicente Cañada Blanch Spanish School in London which teaches both primary and secondary education within the Spanish curriculum.
The Spanish Education Office also provides free language and cultural classes to children of Spanish nationals who are resident in London in order for them to continue their ties with the Spanish language and culture. Both subjects are funded by the Spanish Education Office in London which is also responsible for the funding of
other Spanish educational institutions in different centers around the UK.
