Ethos of King's School

Our school is a special place where children feel valued and imagination is alive.  We nurture talents at King's and strong friendships are made here so that all the children develop a confidence and independence that is recognised by everyone who meets them.

We truly believe it is essential for each child to have a happy and enjoyable education.  They are encouraged to reach their full potential across the curriculum and to take pride in their work and achievements. 

Meeting the individual needs of every single child is at the heart of all that we seek to do at King's School.  We acknowledge that every one of our pupils is totally unique, a fact which we celebrate.

King's is a school with a strong Christian Ethos.  This is in evidence within our philosophy and in the daily life of the school.  Throughout we endeavour to foster a spirit of cooperation and mutual respect whilst encouraging individuals to feel that their unique contribution is valued.

Class numbers are carefully considered in order to provide the support and attention that each child requires; this helps particularly when laying down the foundations in the core subjects.  Our objective is to develop the highest standards of self-discipline and behaviour within a supportive environment.  It is our belief that children experience a greater security within a well-disciplined structure.
