About us

Welcome to King Edward’s. Our mission here in Witley reflects our proud history, thriving present and bright future and is ‘to create educational journeys with opportunities and shared experiences that transform the lives of our united community’.

Over 470 pupils from year 7 to 13 (first to sixth form) flourish in our co-educational school within a 100 acre learning environment which inspires curiosity, ignites passions and prompts discovery. We have been united in our diversity since our foundation in 1553.

At King Edward’s, we offer day, full boarding, weekly boarding and flexi-boarding opportunities and we seek to curate excellent school experiences, enabling our pupils to realise their ambitions and potential, and which are truly bespoke to their individual needs, strengths and personalities.

Our eight supportive and sociable houses are at the centre of school life and of the pastoral care, safeguarding and wellbeing of our pupils. Our year 7 and year 8 pupils enjoy the dedicated Queen Mary House as their base, providing a safe, nurturing, environment in which our youngest pupils build their relationships. From year 9, all pupils join one of our six houses as part of a community including both day and boarding pupils from the UK and around the world.

Our year 13, upper sixth, pupils transition to Jubilee House, opened in 2022 and designed as a stepping stone to the independence they will enjoy after leaving school at the diverse range of high quality universities, and the careers they transition to.

We hope you enjoy learning more around our school; we are at your service to assist with any questions you have around King Edward’s.
