INCLUSION
At King’s we are committed to creating an inclusive culture where every member of our community has the right to be known and respected as their authentic self, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion,gender,sexualorientationordisability.This inclusive approach will be genuinely upheld if day by day each of us helps to create a compassionate and supportive environment, one in which each individual feels valued, able to be themselves and are free from any form of intimidation. We do not accept any form of discrimination and will demonstrate this in our behaviours, in the way that we view and treat others, and the way that we challengeinequalityanddiscriminationasactiveand supportive bystanders and allies. We recognise that discrimination, inequality, and exclusion are issues at all levels in society, and that all institutions must proactively strive to address these issues. To do this, all members of our community recognise that we are responsible for our words and actions.
THE SCHOOL
King’s College School is an independent day school for boys aged 7-18 and girls aged 16- 18. Founded in 1829 by Royal Charter, King’s is a school of almost 1,500 pupils, including approximately 300 boys in the Junior school, located in one of the most attractive and peaceful parts of London. There are 244 staff in the two common rooms and 167 non- teaching staff. King’s prides itself on being a forward- thinking and innovative school. As well as being a very successful International Baccalaureate school, we offer pupils the opportunity to study from a wide A level curriculum and to engage with our family of schools abroad. We accept boys at the age of 11 into year 7 of the Senior school from a wide range of schools, as well as from our own Junior school. We also continue to offer
the 13+ entry into our Fourth form (year 9), and around 60 girls join the school each year at 16 to study in our Sixth form. A £50m master plan was recently completed that has renewed and replaced major facilities across the campus. At King’s, colleagues, parents, and pupils work together in a warm and supportive atmosphere to help every child achieve their full potential. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture and where every member of our community has the right to be known and respected as their authentic self, and the experiences of all pupils are as positive as they can be. We have a Director of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion who spearheads our equality and inclusion agenda.
