Whilst we are lucky to have students of all ages coming from a number of different countries throughout the world, the vast majority of our students are aged between 14-17 from China. These students are coming with the intention of learning English, completing high school and then attending University in Australia.

The 2012 International Student Survey found that 87 per cent of international students in Australia were satisfied or very satisfied with their study and living experience here, up from 86 per cent in 2010.

DEC International are offering students currently enrolled in a NSW government school or Intensive English Centre and wishes to improve English language skills and prepare for NSW Higher School Certificate study at their Cleveland Intensive Language Centre (Surry Hill) over school holidays.
