- MPW Cambridge is part of the Mander Portman Woodward group of colleges, founded in 1973, which has branches in London and Birmingham. The three schools teach about 1,200 students each year, about two-thirds of whom are British and the rest international. MPW Cambridge itself was established in 1987.
- Courses offered include GCSEs and A-levels as well as retakes at both of these levels.

An Oxbridge application programme as well as a medical school preparation are also in operation.
- MPW Cambridge has strong relationships with the University of Cambridge and Addenbrooke’s, the university hospital, which gives students opportunities to visit both institutions and expand their horizons.
