King's Leadership Academy Bolton

Welcome to King’s, a non-selective free independent school in the state sector that is providing a world class education for the young people of Great Lever. King’s Leadership Academy Bolton is founded on international research and traditional values with a huge focus on leadership and academic development.

Our vision is “To develop in each of our student the academic skills, intellectual habits, qualities of character and leadership traits necessary to succeed at all levels and become successful citizens in tomorrow’s world”.

At King’s we believe every child can succeed and that great teaching is the key to that success. This sentiment is reflected in our motto, ‘Credimus’, which translated from Latin literally means we believe.

We believe in appointing only the very best teachers and staff who are committed to serving the students and parents of this community. We believe in having the highest expectations of ourselves and our students as well as accepting no excuses for underperformance. We believe that our school exists to shape the life chances of all our students in order that they can attend the best Universities or places of employment in the years to come. We believe in fully supporting our students throughout their education.

King’s is unique, in that we have developed a highly personalised approach to our provision and teaching. Our smaller class sizes and year groups afford us tremendous opportunities to truly nurture and develop the academic and creative talents in all our students.

As Principal, I am privileged to be part of such a fabulous team of staff who are ‘mission driven’ in their goal to ensure that the education provided here is second to none. I welcome you to the Academy and hope that you find the information in this pack informative.

Mr D Crosby
Principal
