International Study Programmes

International Study Programmes (ISP), a well-established training company from Cheltenham,  has made Dunfermline its official Scottish learning centre for training European teachers of English.

Over the years, both as councillor and now MSP, I have welcomed many groups of teachers studying with this acclaimed organisation. I am proud that ISP has chosen Dunfermline. The organisation also specialises in holiday language courses and tailor-made educational visits to Britain.  Their choice is recognition of Scotland’s ancient capital city as a centre for teaching and cultural awareness.

ISP’s Scottish organiser, Win Scott, works very hard to ensure the teachers enjoy their visits and return home with happy stories of Dunfermline and Scotland. I hope the visits of the approximately 200 further teachers due to arrive in Dunfermline over the summer will be as successful as previous ones.
