Overview

ICS London was opened in 1979 for the children of diplomats and global business people living in London, and that international purpose still shapes its identity. The school works across two nearby sites: younger pupils are based at Wyndham Place, while the secondary and diploma years are on Star Street. It is a single educational journey with a deliberately global starting point.

The curriculum follows the International Baccalaureate sequence of PYP, MYP, IGCSE and IB Diploma. The IB Learner Profile and Approaches to Learning give the pathway a common language for critical thinking, communication, research and self-management. Weekly personal development and morning tutor time sit alongside specialist support for students with a variety of learning differences.

Rolling admissions mean that a place can sometimes be taken during the academic year when space allows. Families begin with contact and a campus visit, then use OpenApply, attend an admissions discussion and receive an offer before securing it with the registration fee and deposit. Clubs, individual and team sports, and activities across London extend the two-campus programme into a varied student life.

Key points

Assessment route
Applications are made directly to the school. Check the school's own admissions pages for registration dates, entrance assessment stages, interviews, fees, scholarships and bursaries.
Places and demand
Published Year 7 place numbers and applicant-per-place data are not included in GIAS for this private-school seed profile.
Catchment
Private-school eligibility is not controlled by the local-authority grammar catchment model; check boarding, day-pupil, transport and any sibling or faith rules on the school site.
Results
Independent-school performance data is patchier in official releases, so GCSE and A-level comparisons should be checked against the school's published results.
Sixth form
Sixth form available.
