Shells settle into life at KES

Daniel has made an enormous contribution to school life at KES. A gifted all-rounder, he captained the First XV rugby team to the national finals at Twickenham, represented the school in water polo at national level, and took part in countless music concerts.

Having succeeded in the competition, we were then given the opportunity to partake in an online Q&A session with the ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano, which was a very interesting and useful experience, where we learned a lot about life as an astronaut, especially what it is really like to spend time on the ISS.

King Edward’s School pupils have achieved their best IB results since 2019, with an average score of 37.95 and five students earning a perfect 45. These outstanding results open doors to top universities worldwide.

Overall, the trip showed our teamwork as a group flourish, and each of us began to notice our individual strengths.
