SCHOOL LIFE Our personal tutor system is at the heart of life at KPS, providing students with the support they need to develop their abilities, skills, and interests to their full potential.
Tutors
Tutors are instrumental in forging the essential partnership between students, their families, and the school, and maintain close communication with parents through fortnightly progress emails home. Horizontal tutor groups in Years 7 and 8 help students forge lasting friendships within their peer group, while vertical, mixed tutor groups in Years 9 to 11 and Years 12 to 13 allow students to watch and learn from older peers as they approach their GCSE and A level examinations. Tutor Groups All students join one of our four houses, Effra, Fleet, Tyburn, and Walbrook. Popular interhouse competitions in areas such as sport, music and art take place each term, teaching students the value of teamwork and how to be gracious in both victory and defeat. Students compete to earn house points, with an annual prize trip for the house with the winning points. House System
