Let me wish you a very warm welcome to Bell Bedgebury International School, a specialist centre for international students aged 12-17 years old.

Our goal at Bell Bedgebury is a simple one - to offer all our students the best possible preparation for their future educational careers.

Our school is built upon the traditional strengths of the Bell Educational Trust - the world’s leading provider of quality English language teaching - and Bedgebury School, an established and prestigious boarding school. Here at Bedgebury, we have created a unique environment where your child can lay down the foundations of a successful academic future. Many of our students move on to study at British boarding schools and colleges but, whatever their goals and objectives, all our students leave us with a strong foundation for future success.

Our students benefit not only from outstanding academic and linguistic tuition, but also from a uniquely nurturing environment which gives them the time and space to develop as individuals and to prepare themselves for the challenges ahead.

Our school motto “in omnia paratus” means ‘prepared for all things’ and this perfectly illustrates the Bell Bedgebury ethos and our desire to equip our students with the skills they need to be successful in whatever they choose to do.

I hope to have the opportunity to welcome you and your child to Bedgebury in the future. If you have any questions or would like to visit the school please contact me on + 44 (0) 1580 879100 or email

Yours sincerely

Sue Harris
Head of Bell Bedgebury International School
