Kent College, Canterbury is an independent co-educational boarding and day school for pupils between the ages of 11 and 18, founded in 1885. Kent College is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.

The Senior School occupies a semi-rural site of some 70 acres on the edge of the city of Canterbury, and also owns the nearby Moat Estate, where there can be found a farm, which is managed by staff and pupils, and extensive sports pitches. These are adjacent to Blean Forest, which is the largest area of ancient woodland in Kent, and recognised on a British and international level for its importance as a wildlife conservation area.

Vernon Holme, its junior school, is located about a mile away, and provides day school education for boys and girls between the ages of 3 and 11, and boarding for children aged 7 and above.
