Mount Kelly is a fully co-educational independent day and boarding school for children between the ages of 3 and 18. The current Head Master is Mark Semmence.

The Head Coach is former Olympian Robin Brew. Pupils and alumni have won a total of 29 Olympic and Commonwealth medals over the last 37 years and been selected for the last five Olympic and Paralympic games.Sharron Davies and Andy Jameson are two of its most celebrated swimmers.
In September 2016 Mount Kelly built new 50 metre, 8 lane Olympic Legacy Swimming Pool, financed in part by Sport England and the National Lottery (United Kingdom).
