King's Ely

Our View

Renowned for its Fenland setting and close links with neighbouring Ely Cathedral (choristers attend the school), this is one of the oldest schools in the world – but it has fantastic 21st-century facilities. Music and the arts are especially strong, although it is academically solid across the board too.

Last year, King's Ely welcomed Fairstead House prep school in Newmarket into its family of schools, in turn opening up plenty of opportunities for collaboration between the two schools.
