Bellerbys Global returns to the UK at Twin locations
- The Bellerbys brand returns to the UK, one of the most beloved British education brands which has been part of the education journeys of thousands of students.
- The partnership aims to meet today’s global needs with world-class education and the flexibility to progress to a wide choice of the best universities in the world.
- Students can choose whether to study at either the Eastbourne or London campuses, and benefit from learning in a true global classroom taught by expert academics.
Bellerbys Global, a leading provider of world-class international education and Twin, a UK-based international education specialist, announce their partnership to deliver the Bellerbys Foundation Programme in the UK. This partnership bears a dual historical significance as it marks the return of the 45-year-old Bellerbys brand in the UK, and the expansion of Twin’s portfolio as it celebrates its 30th anniversary.
The Bellerbys Foundation programme, delivered by Twin, will enable international students to start their higher education journeys at Twin Eastbourne or Twin London, and choose their progression destination from over 50 world-class institutions partnered with Bellerbys Global.
Born from the vision of Mr Robin Bellerby in 1980 and today part of leading global educator Study Group, the Bellerbys Global brand has been at the heart of the academic journey of thousands of students over several decades, standing for exploration, quality and opportunity. From September 2026, the Bellerbys name will once again be associated with the teaching of tomorrow’s brightest global citizens in the UK.
This partnership has one leading aim: to answer the needs of today’s students by expanding access to high-quality British education. Twin students will access world-class academic and language skills preparation for their university studies, with the option to progress to institutions focussed on employability and benefit from some of the best return on investment found anywhere in the world.
As it celebrates its 30th anniversary, Twin strengthened offering underpins its broader engagement with the UK Higher Education sector as it continues to innovate to drive international student success. With the combined strengths of Twin and Study Group, students will experience learning in a truly global classroom, alongside peers from around the world.
At Twin Eastbourne, students will study within the historic Compton Place estate – a Grade I listed campus set in 10 acres of gardens near the English coast. Twin London, based in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, offers modern facilities in one of the world’s most dynamic and globally connected cities.
“For over 40 years, Bellerbys has represented academic quality, progression success and a trusted path to leading universities,” said July Behl, Study Group’s Chief Partnerships Officer. “Our collaboration with Twin will once again allow students to experience that same Bellerbys standard in the UK as part of a global network. This marks another important step in continuing our mission of opening doors for students everywhere.”
“We’re proud to partner with Bellerbys Global to deliver this renowned programme at our Eastbourne and London campuses,” said Caroline and Jacqui Fox, Co-Founders of Twin Group. “As we mark our 30th anniversary, this partnership underscores our ongoing commitment to innovation and opportunity in international education, strengthening our portfolio for the benefit of international students.”
The first intake will start in September 2026, welcoming students from around the world.
This collaboration underlines Study Group’s strategy to establish a select number of high-quality delivery partners across key regions, giving families more choice while maintaining one global academic standard.
