King Ecgbert School is a coeducational comprehensive school (age range 11-18) in the village of Dore in the south-west of Sheffield.

The school became comprehensive in 1969, along with many other secondary schools in Sheffield.

About half its intake comes from local primary schools in Dore and Totley (for example Dore Primary School, Totley All Saints and Totley Primary) and much of the remainder from the Sheaf valley, running from Dore and Totley to the city centre.

Features

After two years under construction, a 3-storey new building was opened to students in Easter 2005. It offered an Integrated Resource, Sixth Form, drama studio and an Astro Turf with an indoor sports hall. The Headmaster is Bob Evans
