About Ipswich High School

Ipswich High School is a vibrant day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 3-18, set in an idyllic 87-acre campus in Woolverstone on the banks of the River Orwell.

Founded in 1878, the school has been at its impressive home near Ipswich since 1992. The school has long enjoyed a high profile across the region and is respected for both its academic success year-on-year, and for its superb pastoral care and unrivalled enrichment activity. With feeder schools spread across East Anglia, the school typically sees its greatest demand for places from the counties of Suffolk, Essex, and Norfolk.

Our Location

We boast a beautiful 87-acre campus at the Grade I listed Woolverstone Hall. The school’s rural setting is just a few miles from the vibrant waterfront town of Ipswich. Our spacious school campus has superb facilities, including a 350-capacity theatre, ICT suites, a 25m indoor heated swimming pool, Sixth Form suite, six science laboratories, dedicated music rooms and floodlit AstroTurf pitches.

Our Teaching Ethos

We are renowned for ensuring our pupils are equipped to be so much more than highly skilled at passing exams. We believe great results are a by-product of an outstanding education, not its sole focus. We do this by providing them with the widest possible range of experiences, both in and outside of the classroom, to broaden their minds and create new opportunities for every pupil to thrive.

In 2023 the school achieved fantastic GCSE and A Level results. Across the GCSE cohort, 10% more pupils achieved a 9-8 grade than 2022. 54% of GCSE grades awarded were Levels 9-7, with nearly 50% of students achieving at least one Level 9 or Level 8 grade.Our A Level results are equally as great. 48.6% of our students gained A*-A, over 72% achieved A* - B grades, while 87% achieved A*-C.

We offer a wide range of 16 GCSE and 22 A Level subjects, as well as the Higher Project Qualification (HPQ) and Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). Our Enrichment Programme is a fundamental part of school life at Ipswich High School. All our enrichments are designed to widen pupil’s experiences, develop their leadership skills, and inspire new passions. The enrichment activities also provide transferable academic, practical and social skills such as leadership, life skills, communication and teamwork experience.
