We are delighted to award the marque to these five schools which have shown exceptionally good standards in their English Language programmes.”

The English Language Quality Standards (ELQS) Programme provides access to a range of developmental resources for English medium schools to improve their English language. British Council’s Consultancy Service supports schools towards meeting the quality standards described in the Quality Standards Framework – an India-specific framework which defines quality in relation to ten standards and five developmental stages.

The schools receive the Quality Standards Marque from the British Council and are able to display it externally to demonstrate the quality of English language teaching provision to their stakeholders such as students, parents and teachers.

ELQS Membership Network is an ideal opportunity for schools and school principals to work with the British Council and raise the profile of their school by becoming a part of an exclusive network endorsed by the British Council.Under the new membership scheme in 2016, British Council will have introductory events for institutions in Chennai, Punjab and Hyderabad
