Kimbolton School was founded in 1600 and is set amongst 120 acres of stunning grounds of Kimbolton Castle, in the West Huntingdon town of Kimbolton. The School currently educates almost 1,100 children aged 4-18 in a co-educational, predominantly day environment, although there are approximately 45 boarders. The Senior School is located around Kimbolton Castle while the Preparatory School is housed to the west of the village on the original Grammar School site. The School employs approximately 350 staff and also owns a subsidiary company, Kimbolton School Enterprises, which transacts all non-charitable trading activity.
Kimbolton School proudly ranks as one of The Sunday Times' Top 10 Independent Secondary Schools in East Anglia 2022.
The School recognises that an important element in safeguarding our pupils is a robust recruitment process that incorporates measures to deter, reject, or identify people who might abuse children, or who are otherwise unsuited to work with them. In addition, recent government guidance, “Safeguarding Children – Keeping Children Safe in Education Sept 2023, specifically Part 3”, as well as specific guidance from the National Minimum Standards for Boarding Schools, help to form the basis of school policy.
