The Stephen Perse Foundation is a family of private schools in Cambridge and Saffron Walden for students aged 1 to 18.

The Foundation is made up of:

- 3 nurseries (2 in Cambridge and 1 in Saffron Walden, Essex) for ages 1–5.

- 2 Junior Schools (Junior School Rosedale House in Cambridge and Junior School Dame Bradbury's in Saffron Walden, Essex) for ages 5–11.

- 1 Senior School for ages 11–16 (boys joined Year 7 for the first time in September 2017).

- The Stephen Perse Sixth Form, for students aged 16–18.

The school has a strong reputation for academic excellence and a progressive attitude towards learning and social skills,[1] being named the top Independent school in East Anglia by The Sunday Times[2] on their 'Parent Power' list in 2016.[3] In 2018, Cambridge Centre for Sixth Form Studies joined the Stephen Perse Sixth Form.[4] The Foundation is a registered charity under English law.[5]
