Bellerbys Brighton is a truly modern interpretation of a British boarding school for students aged 13-18 and located in the heart of Britain’s favourite seaside city. Our expert teachers, specialist enrichment leaders and state-of-the-art facilities provide the support, knowledge and environment students need to succeed.

International students can choose from our GCSE Pathway or 1 Year GCSE, A-Level and Foundation programmes for an education that goes far beyond the classroom. We understand that it takes more than good grades to ensure success at the UK’s top ranked universities and beyond.
