Welcome

Welcome to the Kingswood School website. Kingswood is a specialist arts college with a reputation for excellence – not just in the arts, but in many aspects of school life. We are a true comprehensive school in that we do not select students on grounds of ability, or on any other grounds. We do, however, expect everyone who joins us to behave well, to try hard, and to share our high expectations.

Every member of our school community is as important as any other. We believe in equality in all that we do. We show it in the way we treat one another and we show the same respect, care and consideration for all members of our school community.

We aim to provide a safe and secure environment where all students can prosper and make the most of their talents and abilities – whether they are in the classroom, on stage, or on the sports field. We expect the best in all that we do. We also aim to help our students become responsible members of the wider community – the citizens of tomorrow. Kingswood students are well known for their good behaviour, their friendliness, and for their achievements.

Parent Forum
We propose to start a series of Parent Forum meetings to allow parents the opportunity to discuss with members of the school’s Leadership Group issues which are important to parents and carers. The aim for each meeting is to address a single item only – for example; reporting, uniform, homework or behaviour. Parents would, of course, have the opportunity to suggest an item for discussion at future meetings.
