Ellesmere College

Word From The Head

Jonathan Shaw

Ellesmere College is a leading co-educational boarding and day school set in the beautiful Shropshire countryside. The 150 acre campus on the outskirts of the market town of Ellesmere provides an exceptional environment in which to learn. The school is rich in history but has a firmly forward thinking and progressive outlook.

We are down to earth, but with a sense of ambition and a genuinely holistic approach

There is a refreshing balance between academic challenge and character development. We believe the very best academic results are achieved when pupils enjoy coming to school each day and for this reason pupil wellbeing is central to all that we do. We are small enough to ensure that every pupil is known and nurtured, but large enough to provide a vibrant and dynamic environment.

Ellesmere provides countless opportunities for students to find their niche outside of the classroom, whether it is playing in an orchestra, competing on the sports field or completing the Duke of Edinburgh awards.
Ultimately, we want all our pupils to be equipped with the skills, character, and the sense of responsibility to make a difference in whatever path they take in life.

If you wish to find out more, I would encourage you to see Ellesmere College for yourself. I would love to meet you in person or even online to discuss whether Ellesmere is the place for your son or daughter.
