Kimbolton School
ONE SCHOOL, ONE FAMILY K imbolton School is set within 110 acres of Cambridgeshire parkland at the historic Kimbolton Castle – the final home of Katherine of Aragon. It offers a family-centred education where each child is known, supported and inspired to thrive. Now educating children from ages three to 18, Kimbolton’s newly opened Pre- School completes a seamless all-through learning journey. From their earliest years, children benefit from a rich and ambitious curriculum, with Forest School, swimming and modern foreign languages provided as standard, laying strong foundations for academic confidence, intellectual curiosity and a lifelong love of learning. Guided by our ethos of ‘one school, one family’ and our values of kindness, curiosity, courage, endeavour and integrity,
Kimbolton provides a vibrant environment where tradition and innovation go hand in hand. A close-knit community and strong house system foster teamwork, healthy competition and a deep sense of belonging, ensuring pupils can develop the confidence and resilience they need to flourish. The school will be marking Vanbrugh300 in 2026, a year-long programme celebrating 300 years since the death of one of Kimbolton Castle’s architects – Sir John Vanbrugh. Kimbolton Castle features in Vanbrugh300, a nationwide celebration in Vanbrugh’s tercentenary year presented by The Georgian Group, with events across six major Vanbrugh sites, also including Blenheim Palace and Stowe House. The programme brings history to life through curriculum enrichment, lectures, creative projects and exhibitions, helping pupils to understand how heritage, architecture and ideas shape the modern world. This thoughtful, joined-up approach to education was recognised in 2025, when Kimbolton achieved a highly successful Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) inspection. It met, and was praised in, all of the Independent School Standards and earned particular praise for the quality of teaching, inclusive ethos, breadth of opportunities and strong commitment to pupil wellbeing and personal development. “A close-knit community and strong house system foster teamwork, healthy competition and a sense of belonging”
