King’s is one of the most successful schools in the world, and our community is a special place to teach, work and learn. Educating over 1,500 pupils, we currently welcome boys aged 7-18 and girls aged 16-18, and we are excited to be extending co-education throughout the King’s community from 2029. Our pupils are curious, creative and eager to learn, and the dedication, expertise, and care of our staff lie at the foundation of everything we do. Located in a peaceful part of London, opposite 1,140 acres of countryside offered by Wimbledon and Putney Commons, within minutes of central London and just a short walk from Wimbledon Village and the home of lawn tennis, we are fortunate to enjoy a green and well-resourced campus.

Our school was founded in 1829 by Royal Charter as the junior department of the university, King’s College London, and as such, intellectual aspiration and a progressive spirit are our heritage. Today, we offer an education of the whole person, in Mind, Spirit and Heart, the enduring ethos of our foundation. Our guiding mission is to look outwards, to the world beyond school, and to life at 25: we look to the lives we are preparing our young people to lead, so that when the time comes, they are ready to forge the pathway they choose, and to make a purposeful impact in the world.

We aim for each of our pupils to enjoy an exhilarating adventure of learning and to pursue academic excellence within a fun, caring, welcoming environment. Academic outcomes at A level, IB and GCSE consistently place King’s amongst the very top schools nationally and globally, with over half of A level and IB grades at A* or equivalent last summer, and we were delighted to be the highest placed independent co-educational day school and Independent International Baccalaureate School of the Year in The Sunday Times Parent Power 2025.

Supporting our pupils to grow strong in spirit, in the shared values and qualities of character that will ground them, is equally important at King’s. Kindness, respect and support for one another, a broad-minded outlook and a commitment to ensuring that ours is a community where each individual feels that they can belong, are central to our ethos. Likewise, we share a deep commitment to the co-curriculum, which enables our pupils to develop broad skills and resilience as well as to discover lifelong passions through clubs and societies, CCF, Duke of Edinburgh, sport, the arts, and community partnerships.

The next few years represent an exciting time for King’s as we embark upon the next chapter of the school’s development and prepare to enter our third century in 2029. Over the coming decade, we are extending co-education throughout King’s so that any young person will have the opportunity to flourish here. With the relocation of our Junior School to a new world-class campus on The Downs, we plan to transform our main campus over the coming years, further enhancing our facilities to extend the opportunities on offer to our pupils and communities. Likewise, as the world changes around us, we are constantly considering how we can best enable our pupils to create their futures. We hope you consider joining us for this adventure.
