Stephen Perse Senior School

The Stephen Perse Foundation has a long history in Cambridge dating back to the 17th century, but it has evolved into a modern, forward-thinking institution. The school's philosophy focuses on 'future-ready' education, blending traditional academic rigour with digital literacy and global citizenship. It is highly regarded for its inclusive environment and its commitment to social responsibility and environmental sustainability.

The Senior School and Sixth Form offer a choice between the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma and A-Levels, allowing students to tailor their education to their strengths. The school was a pioneer in the 1:1 iPad scheme and continues to integrate technology seamlessly into the classroom. It is notable for its exceptional arts programs and strong connections to the Cambridge academic community, often hosting guest lectures from university professors.
