Historic Cathedral Schools launch the Three Choirs Schools Group

We are delighted that King's as one of the country’s oldest cathedral schools has come together with Hereford Cathedral School and The King’s School, Worcester to form the Three Choirs Schools Group. This new partnership is designed to strengthen educational excellence, broaden opportunity and enhance collaboration across the three counties of Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire.

Rooted in a shared cathedral foundation and Christian ethos, the partnership brings together three schools with over two millennia of combined history, more than 2,600 pupils and a collective annual turnover of £50m. Each school is a charity committed to academic excellence, character formation and outstanding pastoral care, and the new group aims to amplify those strengths through structured collaboration.

The partnership has been created to enhance, rather than change, the identity of each school. All schools will retain their independence, legal status, governance and leadership. Rather than operating for profit or commercial purposes, the group is founded on shared values and a belief that collaboration can deliver richer opportunities for pupils, staff and the wider communities they serve.

You can find out more about the partnership and the benefits it will bring to families and communities by watching the short video below and by visiting our website.
