The alumni drinks party hosted by the English College Foundation in October has become a regular feature of our calendar going back many years. Recently, the ever-popular venue has been the Savoy Tap pub in Savoy Street just off the Strand. We have the upper room all to ourselves, complete with our own bar and barman, and the event gives newly-arrived students an early taste of a historic London pub.
The aim of the event is to enable new graduates of the English College recently arrived to study in the UK an opportunity to meet alumni of earlier vintages. Those present this time included an early ECP student who had left Prague for Bristol to take her IB, but now decided she wanted to get back in touch with her fellow-students in Prague all these years later. At the other end of the spectrum, we were delighted to welcome seven of the ECP 2024 graduates studying at various universities and colleges in London (plus one from Edinburgh!).
Four of the eight Directors of the Foundation are now ECP alumni, having graduated between 2002 to 2014. All ECP alumni are welcome at our events, so if you are not already known to us, please contact info@englishcollegefoundation.co.uk to be put on our mailing list.
