We strive to create a home from home for students. It’s a welcoming environment where the whole community comes together to shape students into well-rounded people.

From the moment our students start their journey with us, we’re here to guide them at every stage. 

ICS London is one of the leading premium brand schools within the Globeducate Group.

This is a rare opportunity for a proven and inspirational school leader to lead a truly “stand out” secondary school within an award-winning, progressive and sustainability-focused school.

The Principal of the Secondary School is ambitious for their students’ learning and puts students first in everything they do. They have the highest aspirations for their students’ learning experiences and their wellbeing and development. The Principal actively promotes the School’s Mission and Vision through their enthusiastic and full participation in the life of the School and the ICS Cluster, and their supportive engagement with students, colleagues and parents.
