The Language School

Shafston was established in 1996 and has grown to be the largest college of its type in Australia with over 50,000 students having attended since it's inception. The three Shafston campuses are unique! Two are located in the heart of Brisbane and the other is in the heart of the Gold Coast. The original Kangaroo Point Campus which is centered on 'Shafston House', a heritage-listed building constructed in 1851 is located on the banks of the beautiful Brisbane River and covers an area of five acres. The new purpose-built L'Academie Hotel is five minutes away in Brisbane's central business district. These campuses allow our students to enjoy a true university campus experience and atmosphere with beautiful outdoor spaces as well as excellent teaching and learning facilities. Shafston also boasts one of the most diverse student populations in the country.

The English Courses

Shafston international college has a range of English courses available from our personalized General English courses through to the globally-recognized Cambridge English exam. All of our courses are run from our Brisbane river campus with very small class sizes and 100% face-to-face teacher/student contact. Our English language courses are ideal for students just beginning to learn English through to experienced English speakers who wish to have their English level recognized with accreditation such as our Cambridge, IELTS, TOEFL or TOEIC exam preparation courses.

Not only is Shafston a well-respected provider of Academic and Business English, we also have a large campus with many nationalities.

Our campus is located close to the Brisbane CBD and an hour's drive from the Gold Coast (Surfers Paradise) and the Sunshine Coast (Noosa Beach). This gives Shafston students an opportunity to explore the surroundings either on guided tours organized by the on-campus Travel and Activities centre, or on their own. Living on an English-speaking campus and with a full-time English language curriculum delivered by qualified lecturers improves your mastering of the English language, and makes Shafston a favourite of students.
