The City of Ely is on your doorstep and the ancient university City of Cambridge is just 15 minutes away.

"King’s Ely fosters a special and respectful working relationship between staff and pupils that has never ceased to impress me. We will always be grateful for this."
Mrs Wege 

We are a community with diverse backgrounds, passions and ambitions, grounded in the belief that we are all enriched by the achievements of those around us. In 2023, 98% of those leaving for Higher Education secured places at their first choice Universities, Colleges, Music Conservatories, Fashion and Drama schools.

At King's Ely Sixth Form you are encouraged to make your own unique contribution to our community, whether it is leading sports teams, running a club or mentoring younger students.

School uniform is exchanged for your chosen smart business wear, and you choose how and where you spend your free time.

A programme of Higher Education guidance helps you to make informed choices about the next stage of your education.
