Welcome to The King’s School. The information contained in this booklet is relating to entry to the school from September 2024. The King’s School is an independent, academically selective school taking girls and boys from ages 4-18 years old.
Entry into the Infant School, Junior School and Senior School is by assessment days or examinations. Willow Lodge assessment day and the King’s Seniors examination are both held in January for admission into the following September. For King’s Juniors, we now accept admission to the school throughout the year. Entry into the Sixth Form is based on GCSE results and an interview in December.
We do admit children into all sections of the school at other times of the year but this is dependent on spaces being available. For more information, please contact the Admissions Manager (details below).
King’s has an admissions policy which outlines the criteria and selection process for entry. Please read the policy for more information: www.kingschester.co.uk/about-us/policies. Selection is by academic merit alone.
We offer financial help by way of means-tested bursaries for Senior (Year 7) and Sixth Form entry to as many families as we are able to help. There are currently no bursaries available for the Infant or Junior Schools.
If you do not find the answers to all of your questions within the information pack we have sent to you or if you would like to attend one of our events or visit us, please contact the Admissions Manager on: 01244 689553 or admissions@kingschester.co.uk.
