Why King's?

Perhaps the best way we can encourage you to consider King's for your child's education is to understand why other parents have made the choice:

Parents tell us that they want a small school with small classes where their child will receive a lot of individual attention; where they feel valued and cherished and where there isn't the slightest danger that they will ever be 'lost in the machine' of a larger school.

And although of course they want a school that offers a first class academic education, they don't want an 'examination factory'.

They are also happy to know that at King's, extra-curricular opportunities and pastoral care are just as important as academic achievement. They tell us they like the fact that old-fashioned values are upheld with high expectations of behaviour, where children feel secure and where they can achieve - but also make mistakes in a community that will not hold those mistakes against them.

Music, Drama and Sport are 'centres of excellence' at King's which appeals to many parents, who say they quickly detect that this is a happy school, with excellent relationships between pupils, pupils and staff, and staff and parents.

And of course we're not ashamed to admit that prospective parents are quickly seduced by the beautiful and historic setting of the school and especially the Cathedral, the best School Chapel in the land! At the same time, they understand that King's is also a modern school, with up to date facilities and a new Sports Hall rapidly nearing completion.

We would be delighted to welcome you so that we can show you what King's has to offer. Please contact us to make an appointment.
