The Leys School


THE LEYS SCHOOL is an independent fully co-educational boarding and day school with over 530 pupils aged between 11 and 18 years. The school was founded in 1875, and occupies a leafy 50 acre site of park-like ground, between Trumpington Road and Coe Fen.

Some of the buildings - containing a large hall, dormitories, etc - in Perpendicular style, are by Curwen.

Since the admission of girls to the Sixth Form in the 1980s, the school has become fully co-educational.
