Company history

Bellevue Education Group Limited was founded under the name House Education by Mark Malley in 2003, when he took over the Norfolk House preparatory school in London.[8][9] [10]

In 2008 House Education was renamed The Really Great Education Company Limited (EDCO) and purchased Weston Green School in Surrey.[8] [9] [11] [12] It also purchased Skippers Hill Manor Preparatory School in East Sussex in 2010.[9] [13]

The company adopted the name Bellevue Education in 2011, prior to acquiring three more independent schools: Edenhurst Prep School in Staffordshire, Brabyns Preparatory School in Cheshire, and Gateway School in Buckinghamshire.[8] [9] [14] [15] [16]
