Kensington Park School is a coeducational day and boarding school located in central London. As an academic school its purpose is to challenge, inspire and stretch its students to reach their full potential. The class sizes are small, and all teachers are truly passionate about their subjects, meaning all students receive the highest level of teaching.
Alongside the more traditional subjects, the curriculum at Kensington Park School offers Mandarin from Year 7 and computer science as a fourth science. These exciting new subjects allow students to study content that sets them apart from most other schools in the country and prepares them for the ever-changing world.
While the school recognises the importance of studies and offers an academically stimulating environment, also important to the school is life outside of the classroom, and so a wide range of co-curricular activities are available to all students. Situated on either side of Kensington Park, the incredible location of the school allows students to explore the city of London and all it has to offer. A small school, KPS offers outstanding pastoral care, placing the individual student firmly at the heart of their own education.
