Her Majesty the Queen’s award to Immerse Education
Today is the Queen’s 92nd birthday, and what do you think Her Majesty does? Hint, she does not blow out her birthday candles. The Queen takes this day to award the UK’s most prestigious business awards, known simply as the Queen’s Awards.
Immerse wins the Queen’s Award for Enterprise
It is with great pleasure that we announce that Immerse Education Ltd has been awarded the Queen’s Award for Enterprise. To be recognised by Her Majesty is a huge honour and a testament to the unique, educational experiences we have been providing students from across the world.
Since our foundation in 2012, we have welcomed thousands of students from over 60 nationalities to the UK to spend their summer learning in one of the world’s greatest seats of learning, Cambridge.
The benefits of studying in the UK
Winning the Queen’s Award for Enterprise shows that students from across the world continue to recognise and seek to benefit from studying in the UK. There are over 400,000 international students studying in higher education in the UK and with the UK being home to 3 universities in the world’s top ten and 7 in the world’s top 50, it is easy to see why. At Immerse, we are honoured to be able to give high school students an insight into what life at a UK university would be like and it is a very valuable opportunity for students to do so.
Having our international, residential, academic summer programmes recognised by Her Majesty the Queen is another example of how important UK education is our students and to the rest of the world.
The Awards Ceremony at Buckingham Palace
When will we get the prize? Will we get to meet the Queen? In June, Immerse Education will be taking a trip to Buckingham Palace to receive our award from the Queen herself, and needless to say we are all very excited to meet Her Majesty. Maybe Prince George will be joining our programme in a couple of years, who knows?
Immerse Education and its students
We are absolutely delighted to receive the Queen’s Award and we will continue to provide all of our students with outstanding educational experiences.
