KEHS has achieved 12th place in a list of top independent schools for sport compiled by School Sports Magazine. This is the first time we have made it into the top 100 as a result of our national success in badminton and squash. We are the only school in Birmingham to make it into the top 30. This is an incredible achievement and we would not have been able to do this without our super talented students!
