University viewpoint: “ The University of Oxford is a world-leading institution and its students

are amongst the best of their generation. Recently we selected one of Bellerbys’ A Level students who was an outstanding candidate and has emerged as the top student in his year in Engineering. In addition to being academically gifted, he has clearly had the benefit of an excellent preparation for University study.” Dr Stephen Payne, University Lecturer in Engineering Science, University of Oxford

University viewpoint: “ Cambridge is one of the oldest universities in the world and one of the leading

international academic institutions, ranked 1st in Britain and in Europe and regularly ranked among the top 4 or 5 universities in the world. We are very glad that Bellerbys have established the Bellerbys Scholarship to support an outstanding student from Vietnam to study at Gonville and Caius.” Sir Christopher Hum, Master of Gonville and Caius College, University of Cambridge, 2006-2012

…we are driven by the desire to help our students find their own path to a lifetime of success

Before I came to London to start my Foundation programme, I knew very little about the British education system. Highly skilful Bellerbys teachers and staff guided me through the process of applying to different universities, provided their personal help and advice, and taught me things that I later found to be very useful not only in my university studies, but also at work.’

Teacher’s viewpoint:

Exceptional learning environments

State-of-the-art learning technologies bring education to a new level, engaging students in new ways of learning that are both exciting and effective.

Technology for ClassroomsIn the classroom we use interactive white boards that enable teachers to share online resources and software specifically designed for each individual subject. Electronic handsets for stating opinions make lectures interactive, enabling teachers to post questions and elicit responses at key points of the lessons.

Technology for StudyingOur online Learning Management System, StudySmart, enables students to access learning materials at any time. Students can review their class work, listen to audio files, watch videos and make use of the materials their teachers use in class. This opportunity to consolidate their learning in an engaging online environment helps to ensure success in assessed coursework and the final exams.

E-Learning ExpertiseOur team of Advanced Practitioners ensures that only the most effective technology is used in class, and that all our teachers are properly trained in how to make the most of new learning technologies. This specialist team of e-learning teachers provides training and support to their colleagues across the curriculum.

InnovationThrough the work of its Advanced Practitioner network Bellerbys is at the cutting edge of the development of learning technologies. From the use of e-portfolios in pre-GCSE classes to the use of mobile devices in language learning, (m-learning) Bellerbys uses the latest available technology to innovate classroom practice. In 2012, innovation focussed on developing an app to support vocabulary learning via a partnership with leading European universities under the EU Lifelong Learning programme.

Perfect Preparation for UniversityIndependent study skills are critical for success at university and using an online Learning Management System is a key part of studying at university. When submitting assignments online, students can make use of plagiarism highlighting software to develop an understanding of the importance of independent work and of acknowledging the work of others – vital skills for successful university-level studies.

Bellerbys taught me to study independently. It has made me a much more responsible person – not just academically. From bank accounts to gym memberships I have more control over my life and therefore more responsibility. Bellerbys is a great and safe environment to learn in and I think it would be very hard to study here and not achieve your goals.

I found it very exciting studying with classmates from different countries because we all had different opinions, knowledge and backgrounds and sharing them was an amazing experience. I also enjoyed my time at the school residence. There, I made close friends and it made my life at Bellerbys even more enjoyable and vibrant.

Bellerbys helped me get an offer from my top choice university – LSE – because they genuinely care and made sure I was at the top of my game. I was pushed by my tutor to attend every lesson on time and in the end it all paid off. I especially have to mention my Politics teacher who went out of his way to help me prepare for my A2 exams.

Homestay accommodation

visit bellerbys.com 7574 Bellerbys Campus Information: Homestay accommodation

If you want to live a relatively independent life, but still have a caring home environment, Homestay is ideal.

Homestay gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself fully in UK culture and to feel part of a family, eating meals and sharing their lives to get a real experience of British life. All Homestay accommodation is carefully chosen for the security and friendliness it provides and we make regular visits to ensure you have everything you need. We offer a choice of either single or shared rooms. All our hosts will warmly welcome you into their homes.

Included in all Homestay accommodation• Fully equipped study bedroom, including

desk and wardrobe• Breakfast and evening meal from Monday

to Friday with a breakfast and main meal (lunch or dinner) at weekends

• Telephone access• Weekly laundry

Homestay ExtraHomestay extra retains all the benefits of the homestay experience detailed above, but offers the additional feature to the student of a private bathroom.

Homestay Plus – under 16If you are under 16 years of age, you will be automatically registered for Homestay Plus.(Note: Homestay is only available in London to students who are 16 years old or above).

This gives extra support and higher levels of personal supervision. A detailed care plan will be prepared for you, focusing on class, personal study and curfew times as well as dietary and medical issues. A copy of the care plan will be sent to your parents/guardians, so they know you’re in good hands. Homestay Plus gives extra pastoral care, liaising regularly with the college, and giving extra support to you when you need it.

SharingYou have an option to share your room with another student. Many students find this a very good way to ease the transition of living away from home. They often find it easier to settle in, and benefit from making friends with their new room-mate.

LocationWe aim to place you in Homestays that are as close to our centres as possible. However in some cases, this may involve some travel to the centre, usually by bus or train. This a great way to see more of the city you’re living in.

Students who do not yet meet university criteria for English Language proficiency will be expected to take an appropriate English Language course at the College.Students are accepted into the College on the strict understanding that progression through the course is conditional upon satisfactory and required attendance and successful attainment of prescribed performance targets. Students are formally assessed at least twice a year. The assessment will take into consideration: Course work; internal college examination results; attendance; effort in class and in homework; public examination potential. Students who do not meet the attainment criteria will not be allowed to proceed with their original course but will be offered an alternative course or invited to withdraw from the College without refund.

Criteria for the one year A Level course The A Level course length is normally six terms (September start) or five terms (January or April start). Applications for the one year (three term) September start course are accepted only if:• Students have completed a year or more of study at degree level in their

home country, or• Students are repeating the A Level course, or• Students can demonstrate an outstandingly high standard of work at

High School level (to be assessed on a case-by-case basis by the principal).Students unsure of their qualifications should contact the Admissions Department for assessment. Students enrolled on a three term A Level course are accepted on the strict understanding that their progress will be reviewed at key stages including the end of the first term. The College reserves the right to require a longer course or change of course in light of that review.

Accident & medical insuranceIt is necessary that all students have appropriate accident and medical insurance. Students must either take out our own StudyCare insurance policy or provide proof of adequate cover at enrolment. Cover under the StudyCare insurance policy does not commence until the insurance fees have been paid in full, which are non-refundable. Please ensure that you bring with you any relevant medical records, eg. immunisation records, that will assist local medical staff when treating you for any medical condition.

WithdrawalOnce a student has arrived in the UK, a minimum of one term’s notice (in writing) is required, or payment in lieu, whether or not the student continues to attend lessons. Students following the English Language Preparation courses are automatically enrolled to progress on to an academic programme. The student must therefore give the standard term’s notice if they do not wish to progress further at the College. If withdrawal is due to refusal of a visa extension then less notice may be accepted (at the College’s discretion) as long as full written details are provided before a course recommences. Students should be aware of the legal implications of their visa status should they decide to leave the college before completion of their course.Where withdrawal is due to illness, if the student has taken out our comprehensive StudyCare plan insurance scheme (details of which are available on request), subject to the terms of the scheme the student may be able to claim a refund. Notice of withdrawal must be given in writing and is effective from the date it is received by the College.

Colleges’ organisational policiesEach college has policies on admissions, bullying, child protection, curriculum, discipline, health & safety, promotion of good behaviour, sanctions in cases of bad behaviour, complaints and exclusions – these are available on request from the Principal of each college.

Accounts procedures PaymentsPayment can be made to the College by cheque, Sterling bank draft, telegraphic transfer or credit card. Please ensure that the student’s name and customer reference are always included on the transfer document, indicating that the transfer is in respect of school fees. Bank charges and commission for both the sending and receiving banks should be paid by the sender of funds or they will be applied to the student’s account. Payment by credit card is subject to a surcharge of 2%. There is a £1 surcharge for debit cards.Accounts communications will be sent both to the person responsible for paying the fees and to the student unless written instructions are received to the contrary. The company expects payment of all fees to be in sterling and encourages all customers to pay in £ sterling. Funds must be cleared through the college’s bank account before students can attend classes.Sundry ChargesAny incidental costs incurred on behalf of the student will be charged to their account, for example taxi charges, fax costs, field trips, exam fees, text books and vacation accommodation.RefundsRefunds will only be made to the person responsible for the fees unless written authorisation is provided to the contrary from that person. Refunds will be made within 90 days of the end of the relevant term. Refunds are made after calculating any damages or disbursements due, or any other incidental fees or charges.Breakages, loss and damageStudents are responsible for payment for any damage caused by them to College property and household property of their homestay accommodation or College House, and should take particular care to respect furniture.Students in College House accommodation sign an inventory and laundry form for their room on arrival and departure. Occupants of the rooms are jointly and severally liable for the proper care of the room and the College reserves the right to recover costs for damage or exceptional cleaning from the student.

AccommodationThe College includes fees within its accommodation charges to cover the support and service to students in Homestay and College accommodation. College homestay families are instructed not to accept any payment directly or indirectly from any student. Similarly, students outside of the College’s accommodation service are prohibited from entering into any arrangement for accommodation with a College homestay. Students who break this rule render themselves subject to College discipline and charges will be levied to the student’s account on the basis that the student had been in College accommodation for the relevant period.If you miss your course start date for any reason we reserve the right to change your accommodation. However, if you pay the residential accommodation fee, for the shorter of a term or the length of the course, not less than 28 days before the course start date, your bed will be secured for you. If college residential accommodation is booked, should you defer your course to a future course start date and then cancel your course, a full term’s accommodation charge will be payable. If having reserved residential accommodation when booking your course, you immediately on arrival wish to move to private accommodation, an accommodation fee will be payable by you. That fee will be the residential accommodation charge for the shorter of a term or the length of the course.

Accommodation typeStudents who will be under 16 on commencement of their course will be placed automatically with Homestay Plus families or in the appropriate College House accommodation and will be invoiced accordingly, for welfare and safety considerations.On enrolment, students are requested to indicate their accommodation preference. While the College will use its reasonable endeavours to provide the accommodation requested, the College is not bound to provide a specific type of accommodation and, if necessary, an alternative type of accommodation will be provided. Students will be invoiced for the type of accommodation requested on enrolment and if this subsequently proves to be unavailable, an appropriate credit will be given or an extra charge will be levied. If you miss your start date for any reason, we reserve the right to change your accommodation. Once the confirmation fee is paid, requested accommodation, if available, is reserved. If a term’s fees are not paid 28 days before term starts reserved accommodation will be released.

Changes of accommodationNo change to the type of accommodation arrangements will be made without the written permission of Student Services or the College Principal. This permission will only be given in exceptional circumstances. If a student makes a change to his/her accommodation arrangements or leaves accommodation provided by the College without the prior consent of the College Principal, the student shall remain liable for the full accommodation payments invoiced or reserved at the time of enrolment.One full term’s written notice must be given for students moving out of College accommodation by the student or their parent or guardian and where they are moving to private accommodation the parent or guardian must complete a disclaimer to that effect (local variations may apply). Students will be charged for the one term’s notice period whether or not he or she stays in the accommodation. Two weeks’ notice is required for a move between host families. Further details on our Code of Practice are as printed in the “Student Handbook” given to the students upon commencement of the course (local variations may apply).

Airport transfersWe will automatically arrange an airport transfer at the cost stated in the Prospectus for all students under the age of 18 unless specified otherwise on the application form.

Vacation accommodationThis is available to any student on request to the Accommodation Department. This is normally only available in Homestay families and the appropriate fee will be added to the student’s account.
