Most affordable ILEP English schools in Ireland
Schools ranked by an estimated 25-week total when we have a trusted course figure — an admin approximate or a school-published fee — plus typical city living costs. This is a Stamp 2 planning figure, not a quote.
Living costs use house-share rent and household-budget extras. They do not include visa fees, insurance, flights or a rental deposit. Schools without a trusted total are omitted — enquire on the school page for a current quote.
