From September 2025, we will be extending co-education from the Prep School, welcoming boys into the Senior School and Sixth Form. Boys will initially be integrated into Years 7 and 12.
Uniquely Kingsley; Uniquely Co-educational
Everything that Kingsley has to offer – pastorally, academically, outside the classroom and alongside our sibling schools in Warwick Schools Foundation – will now be available for your son as well as your daughter.
To celebrate going co-ed and our 140 year Birthday, we’re proud to launch a brand-new Pioneer Scholarships, offering up to 50% fee reduction for Year 7 and Year 12 entrants in 2025 who embody adventure, entrepreneurship, and a spirit of service. Find out more on our Scholarship page.
Pastoral Care
Happiness at school is essential if the innate gifts and talents in every student are to be fulfilled. Kingsley is renowned for the care and attention we give to each one of our students, putting their wellbeing and welfare – individually and collectively – at the heart of our school. This focus creates confidence and self-belief, making for a happy, safe, enriching, and respectful school community, where the highest standards are achieved every day, inside and outside the classroom.
In addition to our expertise in supporting girls, we also have significant expertise in supporting boys. Members of our senior team have recent co-educational experience and we can also draw on the expertise of our colleagues at Warwick School, with its fine tradition of boys’ education, as well as the wider Foundation.
"Students have an excellent understanding of how their decisions have an impact on their success and wellbeing."ISI inspection report, June 2023
Academic Achievement
We are proudly an academically selective school. Year after year, our students excel, achieving outstanding results and leaving for a wide range of higher education destinations which serve to illustrate their diversity of skills and interests. We are even more proud of the ‘value added’ – among the best in the county – which enables each student to achieve often well beyond their expectations.
Just as with our pastoral programme, our students will benefit from exceptional staff with exceptional expertise gained from enabling the best possible outcomes in a range of settings: girls, boys, and co-education.
"Students achieve excellent skills, knowledge and understanding, evident in their high levels of success in public examinations."ISI inspection report, June 2023
Co-curricular
Be it in music, sport, drama, outdoor pursuits, or academic enrichment – Kingsley has a fine tradition of nurturing the diverse interests and talents of our student community. In a play, in a concert, on the sports fields, Kingsley students excel. However at Kingsley, we do not stand still. We have recently announced new partnerships and activities to further enrich our students’ time at school:
Round Square
The Kingsley School is the only member of the international Round Square organisation in the Midlands, enriching its educational provision through global collaboration, including student exchanges, conferences, and international projects. Learn more about Round Square and how it benefits our students.
8billionideas
We work with 8billionideas, a company who work tirelessly to equip every student worldwide with the skills and confidence to make a difference, fostering happiness and fulfilment through transferable skills for passionate careers and lives. They visit the school, engaging students with resources and mini-entrepreneurial workshops to encourage collaboration and help us unlock their full potential.
Investment in Sport
The Foundation has recently announced a major investment in sports across its schools, developing facilities at Kingsley and on the Warwick Campus. This enables every student to have access to exceptional, world-class sporting opportunities.
"Students achieve excellence in a range of academic and other activities, notably creative arts, outdoor pursuits, and games."ISI inspection report, June 2023
Foundation +
One of the greatest benefits of being part of a group of schools is the opportunities this creates for students to work together, offering an even greater range of activities and experiences for all. Our students work together in areas such as music and charity fundraising, and benefit from sharing facilities such as Bridge House Theatre.
In music, this means, for example, that students have the opportunity to play in a full Symphony Orchestra, performing major orchestral repertoire, of a scale and standard simply not possible for a single school.
At Sixth Form level, these opportunities include:
- Oxbridge preparation
- Preparation for specialist university pathways
- Overseas universities applications
From September 2024, Kingsley students will enjoy the Warwick Campus Friday Afternoon Activity Programme.
See our Foundation strategy which explains our educational philosophy in more detail.
We describe the educational experience for our Warwick Campus students as being the ‘best of both worlds’ – single-sex schools whose co-location means students can work together meaningfully as they progress through the year groups.
With a fully co-educational Kingsley School, we will offer the ‘best of all worlds’.
"Students attach a high value to creativity…as exemplified by high levels of participation in music and drama and outstanding displays of students’ art…"ISI inspection report, June 2023
