剑桥伊利国王学校怎么样？
King's College School， founded in 1467 and located on the edge of Cambridge city centre， is an independent day school with a mixed gender intake. Boys are admitted up to age 13 (Year 9) – girls can join from Year 7 – after which point it becomes a co-educational school through to A Level.
