William Ellis School is a voluntary aided school for boys in the Borough of Camden. The school takes in children from the ages of 11-18
The school says
Has a long and distinguished history of providing high quality, innovative education for boys. Our improving exam results? 63% 5 A* - C grades in 2006 ? are a key measure of success and compare most favourably with results both locally and nationally. We take great pride in developing articulate, independent and ambitious students with high aspirations.
At William Ellis, boys are encouraged to strive for high standards, to value their progress and to take part in the many extra-curricular opportunities on offer. We are a Language College and, quite apart from many linguistic opportunities, boys can also travel to many European venues to support their studies as well as to Kunming, China where we have a link school.
Teachers and other adults provide support, guidance and inspiration to the students at William Ellis and take great pride in the many achievements of the students in the school.
Ofsted report in 2008 says
"William Ellis is a satisfactory school that has recently been through a difficult period in its history. It is now working hard with its partners and the local authority to address the issues that arose during that time. The school has a good sixth form.
The students enter the school having achieved standards that are in line with expectations.
They make more rapid progress during their first three years in the school than in Years 10 and
11. Standards in national tests at the end of Key Stage 4 have fluctuated in the last two years, but are broadly average. The upward trend in GCSE standards halted in 2007 when results dropped unexpectedly from above to just below national averages. This indicates that achievement overall is satisfactory."
