family centred education. At Kimbolton, we provide a

vibrant and nurturing environment, where every pupil is supported to thrive academically and socially. We are a co- educational day and boarding school for ages 11 to 18. Guided by our ethos of ‘one school, one family’ and core values of kindness, curiosity, courage, endeavour and integrity, we foster a keen sense of belonging through our close-knit community and house system, which promotes teamwork, healthy competition, and a supportive community. With 110 acres of beautiful parkland and situated within and around the historic Kimbolton Castle, the final resting place of Katherine of Aragon, the school offers pupils a unique blend of tradition and innovation. ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND DIVERSE FUTURES At Kimbolton School, we pride ourselves on helping pupils achieve their full potential through personalised teaching and a supportive culture that nurtures

This approach delivers outstanding academic results consistently, with 90% of A-level grades at A-C in recent years and many of our sixth form students securing places at top universities, including Oxbridge and leading Russell Group institutions. Beyond academia, our pupils are prepared for exciting careers across a broad range of fields, from the arts and sciences to technology, business and sport. Our alumni exemplify the opportunities available to our pupils. Notable graduates include Olympic sailor Ben Saxton, who represented Great Britain on the world stage, and Christopher Curry, co-founder of Acorn Computers and a pioneer in the tech industry. These success stories reflect

the wide breadth of ambition, talent and support that define our school community. Kimbolton’s dedication to individual growth goes beyond academics. We equip pupils with the confidence, resilience and critical thinking skills needed to excel in today’s rapidly changing world. Whether embarking on a degree in medicine, engineering or the creative arts, or pursuing entrepreneurial ventures, our pupils leave school ready to embrace their futures with ambition and capability.
