KEGS is one of England’s leading state schools providing a wonderful environment in which very able students from diverse backgrounds thrive and succeed. As we say in our vision document, ‘our overarching mission is for all KEGS students to be nurtured as uniquely talented individuals, finding fulfilment through their love of learning and the exploration of the furthest reaches of their intellectual, creative, physical and emotional capabilities.’
Learning is at the heart of everything that we do and from the moment students arrive in Year 7 they are encouraged to think critically about the world they live in, to be bold and innovative in their thinking and to express their ideas in a range of imaginative ways.
However, the pursuit of academic excellence is only a part of it. We are deeply committed to the idea of a rounded education where personal development is valued as highly as examination results. The learning experience for KEGS students is not confined to the classroom but encompasses a wide range of fieldwork, expeditions, trips, visits and extra-curricular activities.
At KEGS, we strive to fulfil the ideal of ‘learning without limits’ – and we all have a wonderful time in the process.
