Welcome to King's School & Nursery

King’s School and Nursery in Plymouth is a co-educational independent school for children aged 8 months up to 11 years old. We provide a complete education in a warm and nurturing environment.

Our strong sense of family and community, where each child is guided and encouraged to aim high and do their best both academically and personally, is something we are very proud of. Good manners and thoughtfulness for others are core values and children learn to take responsibility whilst gaining in self-confidence, self-discipline and maturity.

RESPECT

Respect is a cornerstone value, promoting a culture of empathy, kindness, and understanding among pupils and staff.

 

INTEGRITY

 
Integrity is instilled in every aspect of our education, guiding pupils to make honest and moral choices in their academic and personal lives.

 

COMMUNITY

 
King's School cherishes the importance of community, nurturing an inclusive and supportive environment where pupils collaborate, learn, and grow together.

Welcome to the Olympic GB rower Chloe Brew fresh back from the Paris 2024 Games. She popped in this morning to see her cousin Sammy in year 6 and also to give a presentation to the whole school about her Olympic adventure. The children and staff had lots of questions and we were all so impressed by Chloe’s commitment and drive to be one of the very best. Thank you Chloe for taking the time to talk to us and inspire the next generation of Olympians. #kingsschoolplymouth #britishrowing #olympics2024 #independentschools #devonlife #cognitaway #devon
