Use your legal right to educational leave and improve your English in sunny Malta!
Did you know that you are entitled to up to five paid days of educational leave per year? With educational leave, you can use this time to invest in yourself – and learning a new language is one of the most rewarding ways to do so. In some federal states, you can even combine two years, giving you a total of 10 days of educational leave.
We are officially recognised as a language school under the Educational Leave Act (except in Bavaria and Saxony). As regulations vary between federal states, we recommend that you speak to your employer first and review the course details below. No matter which federal state you live in, we will guide you through every step and make the process easy. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Below you will find our fully accredited courses in the participating federal states. When you are ready to make use of your educational leave, simply fill out the form – we will take care of the rest.
All accreditations are renewed regularly. In the federal state of Saxony, educational leave will be possible from 2027.

Educational Leave – MALTALINGUA
Courses marked with * are only recognised in combination with additional hours. Some federal states (Baden-Württemberg, Hessen, Niedersachsen and Schleswig-Holstein) require a minimum of 30 clock hours (60 minutes per hour) for recognition as educational leave events. A regular intensive course with 30 teaching units of 45 minutes is unfortunately not sufficient in these states.
For these federal states, we offer our supplementary educational leave course with 10 additional teaching units to ensure all legal requirements are met. Please contact us for a quote!
We specialise in educational leave programmes and make it easy for you to complete your educational leave with us. At our highly accredited language school, you will learn in small, dynamic groups of up to 12 participants – ideal for rapid learning progress.
Our courses are officially recognised by federal states across Germany, giving you access to high-quality, accredited language programmes. Upon completion of your course, you will receive an official certificate of attendance for your employer.
If you would like to learn more, our German-speaking educational leave expert is happy to assist you. Simply contact us or call us on (+49) 89 599 455 70 (Mon–Thu, 08:30–17:30).
