What people say about us

King's was a fantastic learning environment. I felt that I could flourish there because of how supportive both the teachers and my fellow pupils were.

- Sebastian Fenton: Engineering undergraduate at Imperial College London and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon

“King’s provided a great all-round education, through top class teaching, be it in academics, sports, music, drama. It’s a special place, where teachers ingrain the message of giving back and contributing to society in a meaningful way.”

- Moiz Ali, former student of King's College School, Wimbledon

“King's is an exceptional school where every pupil can fulfil their potential, whatever their ambitions. The teachers are always willing to go the extra mile.”

- Marcus Walford. Classics undergraduate at the University of Oxford and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon

“King’s is special, first and foremost, because of the people. The pupils are, of course, bright, enthusiastic and open-minded; but no school can work as well as King’s does without a fantastic group of teachers and support staff. Everyone is willing to help however they can and always with a smile, and the combined specialist knowledge of the staff is astounding. The common room at King’s is a real delight to be a part of.”

- Natasha Rarity. Teacher of Classics and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon

“Kings for me was always more than “just a school”; my typical day could include a morning choir session followed by multiple Science and Maths periods, then mixing in inter-year house events at lunchtime, and finishing off the day with netball practice in the afternoon... No two days at King’s are the same! The lessons were always incredibly fun and involving, with a small teacher-to-student ratio allowing for tailored subject discussions as well as a dynamic and constantly challenging environment.”

- Ambre Bertrand- Engineering undergraduate at the University of Oxford and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon

“The collaborative atmosphere and diversity of thought amongst pupils contributed to the dynamic and stimulating environment at King’s. The teachers challenged us both academically and outside the classroom, preparing us well for the next stages of our academic career.”

- Llesha Singh. Economics and Management applicant at the University of Oxford and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon

“My time at King's has been an unparalleled experience providing not only an exemplary and unique learning environment but also a family of peers with integrity and passion. I've relished being a part of King's for the last 11 years and upon leaving, I feel fully empowered and prepared to tackle whatever walk of life I choose.”

- Khaled Oozeer. Earth Science and Engineering undergraduate at Imperial College London and former student of King’s College School, Wimbledon
