Another English Language School Closes

A seventh college which caters for international students in Ireland has said it is to close.

In a post on its Facebook page, English in Dublin, located on the city's Merrion Square, confirmed had entered into liquidation "with great regret".

Initially approved by accreditation organisation ACELS, the college lost the accreditation a number of weeks ago following an inspection.

It is thought around 300 non-EU students attended the college.
