Company Details

At Bell, we believe that English is more than a language. It's a stepping stone that will help you achieve your dreams.

Through our teaching approach, The Bell Way, we encourage you to aim high, exceed your learning goals and become a confident user of the English language.

Bell was founded by Frank Bell, a University of Cambridge graduate, with a love of languages and a vision to promote intercultural understanding through language education.

Frank’s inspiration came from his time as a prisoner of war during the Second World War. In the harsh conditions of the camp, he taught his fellow prisoners Spanish and French, a simple act of defiance that quickly led to the creation of a secret university which taught a broad range of subjects.

After the war, Frank Bell returned to England where, reflecting on his experiences, he became convinced that the route to international co-operation and understanding lay in learning. This led him, in 1955, to open his first language school in Cambridge, which still operates today.

Since then, Bell has grown from one prestigious English language school in Cambridge to an internationally recognised, high-quality education business which unlocks the world for its students through learning English and learning in English.

Why work with Bell?

In 1955 Frank Bell opened the very first Bell school in Cambridge and, in so doing, laid the foundations for one of the most successful and respected providers of English language training around the world.

Our mission is a simple one: we change lives by providing education, training and cultural experiences for people worldwide.

Since then, the scope and scale of our operations has grown beyond all recognition and we now operate teaching centres and projects around the world, helping students from over 120 countries expand their horizons each year. However, Frank Bell’s original vision and his belief in the transformative power of education and its use as a force for good in the world remains at the very heart of everything we do.

We don’t just believe in offering jobs – we offer careers. That’s why we offer an unparalleled working environment, and one that challenges all our staff to be the very best that they can be.
