The Stephen Perse Foundation is a family of independent schools educating boys and girls from nursery and early years to sixth form in Cambridge and Saffron Walden. We seek to educate and inspire the change makers of tomorrow: intelligent young people with the creativity, compassion, confidence and conviction to improve society and the world.

Our vision is to create and sustain an outstanding educational environment that fosters modern scholarship through exceptional teaching and a dynamic, flexible and rigorous academic curriculum. Added to this, the breadth and quality of our pastoral care and extensive co-curriculum serve to nurture and celebrate our students’ individuality and personal development.

Our community of staff, students and parents places great emphasis on our values, which include scholarship, excellence and creativity in teaching and learning, kindness, self-reliance and social and environmental responsibility.

Our inspirational environment includes immersive digital engagement and the provision of dynamic spaces to encourage learning and curiosity. Extensive sport, music, drama, art and wider creative opportunities across all age groups support and enhance our students’ experiences and achievements.

Our results are exceptional, placing us amongst the best independent schools in the country by any measure - at GCSE, A-level, the International Baccalaureate, our leavers’ university destinations, and in what our students go on to achieve beyond their formal education.
