- Welcome to King’s Ely it is a remarkable school. People have been educated here, in the shadow of Ely Cathedral, for well over 1,000 years, which means we have had plenty of practice at doing our job. However, we are not about historic achievements or illustrious alumni but children and young people because they are our future. We look after the academic and pastoral needs of around 1,000 boys and girls aged 2 to 18 with boarders from 7 years old. We came into being to educate choristers and now we have two cathedral choirs, junior boys and senior girls, with choral scholars of both genders in the Sixth Form. That is a small part of the story and King’s Ely is a school where we believe education is an adventure. Students of all ages are encouraged to take risks in their learning, pushing themselves beyond the boundaries of their expectations, discovering more about the world around them, and, in so doing, more about themselves. What makes us different is our determination to instill in the young people in our care a real enthusiasm for learning and our belief that all students can achieve when their learning style is fully engaged. This can be challenging, even uncomfortable, but King’s Ely students know that they are well supported and that their teachers believe in them, so they take the risks that carry their learning to new heights. How can one begin to define anything as vibrant and dynamic as a school? After all, a school is a collection of people, and each time the year turns and the population subtly shifts on gear we become a little bit different. So is that what defines us: the belief in the individual and the dedication of all of our staff, teachers and support staff alike, to enable them to become what they can be and the sense, in each member of our community, that his or her contribution makes a difference to what we are? An education at King’s Ely is no rehearsal because every day happens only once and we believe that it should be embraced and lived to the full. Our Aims are lofty, and so should they be, because our aspirations for our students are that they will each make a noise in this world and make a difference in their homes, their communities, their workplaces, and beyond. They are characterized by their energy, their courage, their integrity, their self-knowledge, their courtesy, and their sense of humor. An assumption of academic achievement is enabled by continuity of approach, compassion, and systems that will take pupils further than they ever believed they could go. Flying high takes courage, but those same systems provide security that builds confidence and resilience to meet the challenges of the next opportunity. We know that if we could bottle the spirit of King’s we would be onto a real winner, but we would like you to come to breathe it for yourself. Only through visiting the school can you feel the energy of the place and the warmth of our community. View full school
