School Information

The essential pillars of life at King’s are based around academia, sport and culture and the interaction with the wider community. A fundamentally non-selective school, the academic results are testimony to the belief that by allowing pupils to find their niche – be it music, sport, art, drama, community service –the resulting self-confidence and self-esteem has a very positive effect on what happens in the classroom.
