Bell English Summer School in London
Sample Timetable
Education is at the heart of everything BELL do. In 1955, Bell opened its doors with one vision – a world united by intercultural understanding. We believe in the power of language education to transform lives, remove barriers and unlock the world for their students.

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. Reflecting on his experiences, he realised that the route to international co-operation and understanding lay in learning. This led him to open his first language school in Cambridge, which still operates today as Bell Cambridge.

Accommodation
Homestay families are carefully selected, monitored and visited regularly by the Accommodation Officer. Homestays offer students the opportunity to learn more about British culture while they study English. Under-16s may be placed with students who speak the same language as them so they can travel to and from school together more easily and feel more at home. Please note that in accordance with UK law, 12-15-year-olds can only stay in a homestay for a maximum of 4 weeks.
Facilities
- Student Lounge
- Garde
- Ping Pong Tabl
- Free WIFI
Student Welfare
To ensure student welfare there is a 9.00 pm curfew, unless students are on a supervised LSI activity or their parents have specified a different time. Valuables such as passports and airline tickets may be left with the Centre Manager on the student’s first morning, to be kept securely locked in the school. Phone cards are available for purchase at the school for discounted international phone calls. Public transport costs are not included in the course fees. We advise students to buy an Oyster card.
Travelling between Accommodation and School
On arrival in London, LSI suggest that the student books an LSI taxi to ensure their safe transfer to their accommodation.
The homestays are an easy commute from the school. Between 2 and 4 students will be placed in each of their families so that they can travel together. On their first day, their family will give them full information on how to reach the school.
Please note that (particularly with younger and/or low-level students) we may, where appropriate, place students of the same nationality in one homestay. At school and during leisure activities, they will be in a strictly English-only environment, but it is our experience that younger students or those who have little experience of being away from home, adapt more easily to life in London if they have someone, they are able to communicate with fully. This helps them relax, which in turn reduces the likelihood of homesickness and increases their enjoyment and concentration in the classroom.
