King’s provides continuous day and boarding education for girls and boys aged 2 to 18 years. It comprises King’s College Prep School which has approximately 300 children from 2 to 13 and a senior school with approximately 450 pupils from 13 to 18.

The schools are situated on separate sites in the South West of England and combine traditional values with state-of the-art facilities. Both schools are run by one governing body, with many functions (marketing, strategy and finance for example) undertaken jointly.

King’s College Prep is co-educational, offering day and boarding places to boys and girls from the ages of 2 to 13. There are about 300 children in the school, 90 of whom are in the Pre-Prep.

The school is built around Pyrland Hall, an impressive Georgian country house on the edge of the Quantock Hills. The 50 acre estate (including 15 acres of playing fields) is entirely surrounded by National Trust farmland but is also within a mile of Taunton, the county town of Somerset. Bristol and Exeter are within easy reach while London is a 1 hour 40 min train journey or three hours via the motorway.

The Pre-Prep’s Early Years Foundation Stage consists of a Nursery, which takes children after they have reached their second birthday, and there are then one or two classes in each year from Reception to Year 2.

The Prep department, Years 3 to 8, has two or three classes in each year group. There is continuity of educational provision between Years 1 and 8.

The school is a member of the Woodard Corporation, a group of fifty schools educating boys and girls in the Christian tradition in most parts of the country. It works in harness with King’s College, Taunton which is on a separate site about three miles away and most pupils transfer there at the age of 13+.

There is an excellent record of academic, musical, artistic, dramatic and sporting achievements throughout the school.

There is a programme of continual development including a new sports hall, a performing arts centre used for concerts and drama productions, new changing areas, computer centres for both the Pre-Prep and Prep, a refurbished swimming pool and surrounds, a new full size astroturf pitch and a cookery school. The Pre-Prep also had extensive refurbishment and the new Science Faculty has transformed the provision for more than just science.
