Bellerbys College was a series of two (formerly four) private international co-educational boarding schools based in the UK, owned by Study Group.

[3] In 2021, Bellerby's announced a new partnership with Loughborough University that helps students receive conditional offers for specific degrees.

In 1991 the college was bought by a group of British businessmen who invested money in recruitment overseas and developed the foundation programme, a one-year bridging course enabling international students to enter UK universities at first-year undergraduate level.

[9] In 1996 Bellerbys opened a campus in the north of Cambridge and the following year took over a school in Wadhurst, East Sussex,[10] expanding to cater to growing demand for British education overseas.

In January 2011, an 18-year-old Malaysian Bellerbys girl student was gang raped[11] at the school's Bounty House halls of residence following a disco at its nearby Greenwich campus.

The four perpetrators, three of whom were the sons of Russian oligarchs, were all fellow students at the college; they were sentenced to a total of thirty-five years in prison.

[12][13] In 2015, a biology teacher at Bellerbys' Cambridge site was banned from teaching for an indefinite period after kissing a student on the lips in a "sexually motivated" manner.

[22] Following the death of a boarder at Bellerbys' Bounty House residential facility in Greenwich in January 2014,[23] Ofsted carried out an emergency inspection at the request of the Department for Education (DfE).

[27] A progress monitoring inspection boarding report published in December 2014, following a re-inspection the previous month, found that "senior leaders have shown commitment to improve the safeguarding arrangements.

The college has made good progress in implementing its action plan to ensure that all the national minimum standards are now met".

[30] In 2004, Bellerbys Colleges told undercover reporters from the Sunday Times that it could guarantee good university places to students completing its courses.

In March 2015, Private Eye reported that marketing in Singapore was still claiming "successful completion of Bellerbys Foundation program guarantees you a place at one of our 50 partner universities".
