Teachers
Having a recognised diploma-level qualification in teaching English to speakers of other languages is a requirement for their permanent teachers. In addition to this, they will also have extensive teaching experience in a variety of professional areas. It is a minimum requirement that teachers have a recognised English language teaching qualification i.e Cambridge CELTA, Trinity College TESOL Certificate or equivalent. Most teachers have a degree level qualification.
💼 What the programme involves
This school also offers a Test of English for Aviation Personnel (TEAP) which is widely used to assess the language competence of pilots and air traffic controllers in accordance with the ICAO Language Proficiency Rating Scale. Aviation personnel and/or their sponsors are then able to determine a training programme with more confidence.
The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) grades English Language performance on a scale of 1 to 6:
Level 1: Pre-elementary
Level 2: Elementary
Level 3: Pre-Operational
Level 4: Operational
Level 5: Extended
Level 6: Expert
In order to conform with ICAO Language Proficiency requirements, Pilots, Air Traffic Controllers and all others who use English in R/T communication on international routes must be at ICAO English Language Level 4 (Operational) or above. This must be confirmed by successful completion of an airline industry approved test.
