- Culford School was established as the East Anglian School for Boys in 1881, one of a group of Methodist schools. In 1935, it moved to its present location at Culford Park, the former seat of the Earls of Cadogan, and is surrounded by 480 acres of parkland.
- Culford’s “ACE Programme” for academic and co-curricular enrichment offers a range of opportunities for pupils across seven key strands including community outreach and academy sports. Since 2009, a group of lower-sixth pupils have visited Malawi to carry out voluntary work building a library. Other ACE activities include the school’s journalism programme and an internationally recognised qualification in mental health first aid.
- Both sports and academic scholarships are available and Culford also offers means-tested, annually reviewed bursaries.
- Culford alumni include the BBC football commentator John Motson and the former Conservative MP Nick de Bois.
