Rowing, athletics, golf, cricket, hockey, tennis, rugby, netball, yoga, pilates, equestrian, clay pigeon shooting and football – there are sports and activities for everyone. As one of the major sports available to students from year 8 onwards, rowing is enormously popular at King’s Ely. Our Boat Club is located just a short walk from school, providing an uninterrupted stretch of water that runs for over 15 miles in each direction, including a 5km straight, making it the perfect place to train and to compete. PREPARATION FOR THE FUTURE Innovative approaches to teaching and learning are the hallmark of every section of King’s Ely. Through a broad and balanced curriculum, pupils develop the self- knowledge and inner resilience that will enable them to face the challenges of an ever-changing world. The aim is to create responsible and engaged young people who have developed learning habits that successfully prepare them for public examinations, higher education and
the challenging world of work. Old Eleans are currently studying 62 different courses at 43 different universities worldwide, from medicine to fashion and law to archaeology. As reported in the Good Schools Guide , King’s Ely “turns out well-rounded, likeable individuals who attain academically but who also realise there is King’s Ely is more than a school. We are a community, a family. We take each child on a seamless journey, travelling from one section to the next, while welcoming newcomers at key transition stages, giving support and adapting the offering to the needs of every child in our care. Visitors to King’s Ely frequently comment on the energy and warmth of our community. They notice, and appreciate, the relationship between staff and students more to life than just results”. INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY and the mutual respect shown by each to the other. With over 45 nationalities represented throughout our school, pupils enjoy their schooldays in the company of friends from a range of cultures and backgrounds. Such diversity, in part explains why, across our 75-acre site, visitors are never far from the sound of joy and laughter.
