Starting in autumn 2025, a new co-educational senior school will open in the beautiful location of Kensington Olympia, London. EducAd’s co-founder recently met with the school’s leadership to discuss their vision and plans. This article will provide insights into Wetherby Pembridge and offer an exclusive opportunity to visit the school and meet its team this May.
Wetherby Pembridge is a unique collaboration between two renowned London schools: Wetherby School for boys and Pembridge Hall School for girls. These two well-established institutions bring a strong track record of excellence to this new partnership. The school is part of the Inspired Education Group, an international network of 118 schools across 24 countries, educating over 90,000 students. Inspired’s three pillars of education—academics, performing & creative arts, and sport—ensure students receive a strong academic foundation while also developing essential artistic and athletic skills both inside and outside the classroom.
The launch of Wetherby Pembridge comes at a time of increasing demand for co-educational schools in London. With the introduction of new regulations imposing a 20% VAT on private education earlier this year, many families are reconsidering weekday boarding as it has become significantly more expensive. Additionally, London has historically had a limited number of mixed-sex independent schools, making admissions highly competitive. Wetherby Pembridge’s opening is well-timed to meet this rising demand.
The school plans to accommodate 475 students, ranging from ages 11 to 18. When it opens in September 2025, it will welcome 100 students across Years 7 to 9. Year 10 will be introduced in September 2026, followed by Year 12 in September 2028.
Currently under construction, the school’s campus is being designed with students’ needs in mind, aiming to "promote academic, sporting, and creative excellence." You can take a virtual tour of the school here.
