About William Ellis School

William Ellis School photo

William Ellis is a close community with strong relationships between adults and young people. The staff in the school are fully committed to growing and realising the ambitions of our students and working in partnership with their families. We are a centre of excellence for boys’ education and work together to bring out the best in all our students. Honest, caring and robust relationships, paying due regard to physical and mental health, are at the centre of what we do. We recognise and address the need to challenge and support boys with every aspect of their learning, including literacy.

We provide a distinctive environment for boys that guides them towards healthy, happy and successful futures. High quality learning is central to everything we do; this enables students to build their cultural capital and intellectual skills, with Modern Foreign Languages a core part of our curriculum to GCSE.

We work in an emotionally intelligent way to prepare our students for the society and workplaces of the future, regardless of their starting points or the challenges they face. This is grounded in the strong foundations of our William Ellis attributes: responsibility, resourcefulness, reflection, respectfulness, resilience, creativity, and communication. Our house system allows students to develop a sense of collective endeavour and common purpose and to be positive role models for others as they move through the school.
