King's High School - Warwick

Founded in 1879, King’s High School provides independent, single sex, education for approximately 820 girls aged 11 to 18. The school is renowned for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere and its strong reputation as a centre of educational innovation. It is founded on a distinguished academic tradition tailored to the individual needs of our students. We pride ourselves on the outstanding academic performance and broader creative and co-curricular passions of our pupils.

We value friendship, social responsibility, intellectual curiosity and creative thinking. Students are encouraged to follow their interests and excel in subjects they enjoy. Our aim is for our pupils to grow into happy, confident and compassionate young women with the ability to reason, analyse, learn independently and exercise strong judgement and leadership.

King's High School is one of the leading girls' schools in the UK. We are a multi-award winning school that has attracted considerable national attention for our recent work and innovations. We were recently crowned Senior School of the Year by the Independent Schools Association and won the ISA Award for Future Readiness. We have been Finalists for Girls' School of the Year for the last three years and were also Finalists in TES Independent School of the Year Award. We were recently ranked The Sunday Times' top independent school in the region for academic performance and Dr Burley won Tatler's Best Head of a Public School Award. Tatler described us as a 'school of the future' and we have also achieved a significant strength for our work on changemaking and community action in our latest ISI report. We currently rank as the 8th best girls' school for sport in the UK.

Above all, we are proud of our warm, friendly and positive ethos which places our students at the heart of all that we do.
