With long strands of ivy it'll probably work. Rooting the 'arborial' or flowering stage of the ivy is a bit more temperamental in my experience and if you want to root this and grow it as a bush I would root it in water on a windowsill.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I have an ivy in a wall pot that I keep as a stock plant. When I plant my baskets for Spring or Autumn I just snip a piece off and shove it in the baskets . Maybe I'm just lucky but it roots everytime.

More than likely-I could bore you with the proper way to take cuttings but ivy seems capable of growing without our help
