Haileybury and Imperial Service College

Haileybury and Imperial Service College, (usually shortened to Haileybury & ISC or Haileybury), is a prestigious British independent school founded in 1862. The school is located at Hertford Heath, near Hertford, 20 miles (32 km) from central London, on 500 acres (2.0 km) of parkland occupied until 1858 by the East India College. Originally a boys' public school, it is now co-educational, enrolling pupils at 11+, 13+ and 16+ stages of education. Over 750 pupils attend Haileybury, of whom more than 500 board. The principal architect, William Wilkins, also designed the National Gallery in London, and Downing College, Cambridge. The school is built around four ranges which enclose an area known as Quad, the largest academic quadrangle in the UK and one of the largest in the world. The site re-opened as Haileybury in 1862. The Chapel dome was added by Arthur Blomfield and completed in 1877. Further Victorian additions were designed by John William Simpson. The Memorial Dining Hall was opened by the future King George VI & Queen Elizabeth, and serves as a monument to former pupils who gave their lives in Great War.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
