About The Perse

 
The Sunday Times Schools Guide 2011

The Perse School is ranked 25th in Britain and 1st in the East in a list of top independent schools published by The Sunday Times. The league table is based on A level and GCSE examination results in 2011. We achieved our best ever A level results this year with 79% of entries graded A*/A. At I/GCSE, 67% of grades were awarded at A* and 88% at A*/A.


Three schools in one

We educate boys and girls from aged 3 - 18 on three separate sites. Children progress through three distinctive schools but benefit from being part of a larger institution with an integrated curriculum and pastoral care system and access to first class facilities.


University success

In 2011, 30 students were accepted at Oxford and Cambridge and The Sutton Trust has identified us as the most successful school or college in the region for getting pupils into the top 30 universities.
