Kensington Park School

Kensington Park School (KPS) is an academically-selective independent day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 11–18. It boasts some of the country’s most experienced teachers and offers excellent cultural and sporting opportunities, all in the heart of London. Our broad and balanced curriculum is delivered in small class sizes, in a modern, dynamic and technology-rich environment, leading to GCSE and A Level qualifications. We encourage every pupil to develop skills that will enrich their lives and equip them with the tools they need to succeed in a fast-paced and ever-changing world. KPS offers its pupils the opportunity to become proficient in many sports and co-curricular activities, developing in them a wide range of social and cultural interests through a broad and enriching educational experience. KPS has developed strong links with renowned sports facilities in and around its west London home. These include Imperial College’s Ethos Sports Centre with its state-of-the-art gym and pool; the Will-To-Win sports centre in Hyde Park, with its all-weather sports surfaces; and the Westway Centre, an important local centre of excellence for climbing, and a central London home for the fast and furious sport of Eton Fives. In addition, there is an exciting outdoor education programme, which includes participation in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme. The school has two campuses, either side of Kensington Gardens: 1. KPS Lower School, in Bark Place, for pupils aged 11–16 2. KPS Sixth Form, opposite the Natural History Museum, for pupils aged 16–18 Students have the option of boarding at KPS’s state of the art, centrally-located boarding house, with an excellent pastoral team to ensure the safety and support of our students.
