English language and an international education experience are challenging obstacles hindering the increase the numbers of Brazilian at full Undergraduate programmes in the UK. Universities recruiting at this level are used to talking to local International Schools as a way to go around that. There, they will find fluent students who are also much more connected with curriculum structures similar to what they will find in Europe.

This connection is already established in the local market. There is, however, a quick point of exhaustion in the strategy, because there is a small number of international schools per city and the good private schools in Brazil don’t teach in English. They have the foreign language only as a second-rate subject during secondary level.

The year of 2012 became important for this particular niche because of the establishment of so many schools applying a curricular structure developed in the USA for secondary language.  Know more about this trend, and get the names and contact details you need to expand your network of secondary institutions that teach in English and produce students that could be a better fit to your Undergraduate recruitment.
