Overview

King's College Junior School is an independent day school for boys aged 7-13. The school was established in 1912 as an integral part of King's College School, to prepare boys for the senior school. It shares with it a common site and many facilities, in particular the Music School, the Art, Design and Technology School, the dining hall, the sports hall, the swimming pool and extensive playing fields. For the rest, the boys are housed in their own buildings. The Priory, converted in 1980, contains eighteen classrooms as well as specialist rooms for information technology and audio-visual work. Rushmere, purchased in 1992, provides the youngest boys with their own teaching rooms and activity areas. Collyer Hall forms the assembly hall and theatre and the school also has its own purpose-built library.

The Junior School (KCJS) is a friendly, professional and well-resourced school providing a strong all-round education that is based on academic excellence.

About Us

Boys here are bright, inquisitive, busy and engaged and they achieve a great deal but this is not a hot-house. We believe that the boys do well because they are happy and enjoy being at school.

The teachers strive to ensure that their lessons are stimulating and encourage the boys to ask questions and think creatively. Art, Design, Music, Drama, Sport, ICT and the wide range of extra-curricular activities which we offer are just as important here as those subjects which are assessed through formal examinations. Together they enable the boys to develop wide ranging interests and to value both their work and their leisure time.

KCJS has wonderful boys and first-rate staff.
