The Perse provides a high quality academic education with an emphasis on all round development. We regularly feature in the top 25 schools nationally, and are committed to producing happy and successful students. We educate boys and girls from 3-18 on three separate sites; the Pelican 3-7, the Prep 7-11, and the Upper 11-18. Children thus progress through three different schools, but have all the benefits of being part of one larger institution with an integrated curriculum and pastoral care system.
