The Ellington and Hereson School is a coeducational foundation high school, located in Ramsgate in the English county of Kent.[1]
Previously Ellington School for Girls, the school amalgamated with The Hereson School (a boys' school in Broadstairs) in September 2009, and was renamed The Ellington and Hereson School. The school was initially based over the two former school sites, but all pupils were transferred to the former Ellington School site in 2011 (the Ellington School was rebuilt in 2007).
It is a foundation school administered by Kent County Council. The school also operates a sixth form which offers the International Baccalaureate.
In March 2015 it was announced that the school is proposed to merge with Marlowe Academy from September 2015. Reasons for the merger include that the site for The Ellington and Hereson School is restricting its growth.[2]
