Any up-to-date information or advice about William Ellis School in north London?

Is it getting better, and would it suit an academic boy?

Thank you.

Bump. I’d be interested to hear about this too

I can absolutely recommend William Ellis. My son moved there in year 9 (he is year 11 now) and I have been amazed at the level of care, organisation, efficient and respectful communication with children and parents, and excellent pastoral care and meaningful interventions they provide.

In respect of the academics, I find their curriculum, enrichment options, and focus on outside learning (with a yearly trip to their compound The Mill) very good. There is an active PTA and involvement with the wider community and WES alumni provides the boys with a greater sense of belonging and purpose in my opinion.
