Welcome to King's House School

An independent co-ed prep school and nursery for children aged 2-13 in Richmond.

 

 

 

About Us

King’s House School was founded in 1946 and has since grown to a prep school of over 400 boys and girls across our Nursery, Junior and Senior Department, with children ranging from the ages of 2 through to 13 years.

We are proud of the breadth of our curriculum: the broad and balanced all-round education at King’s House provides children with the skills and mental resilience to succeed in their next steps in life.

We are a mixed ability school at Nursery and Reception, catering to pupils with a range of abilities. Each pupil is able to discover their unique talents and passions, be it on the sports field, performing on stage, in the classroom or much more.

Our pupils go on to a wide range of day, boarding, single sex and co-ed schools at 11 and 13, and we work closely with families to make sure each child goes on to the right senior school for them.

Amazing staff that truly care about my daughter’s wellbeing and development. I love that my daughter runs to the front door every morning itching to get to nursery. She loves her teachers and enjoys taking part in daily activities like planting sunflowers and dancing and singing to nursery rhymes. King’s House is a happy nursery that nurtures their pupils.

King’s House School excels in creating a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and confident. There is a great balance between academic focus and opportunities for creative, sporting, and extracurricular activities, which allows our child to explore their interests and grow in multiple areas.

From the teacher’s genuine smiles that greet you at the start of the day to the beaming smile from my daughter upon pick up every single day, I am delighted to have found what I believe is the best nursery in Richmond. Underpinning it all is a very clear outline for gentle yet structured learning objectives and a team that is wholly on board to provide your child with the best possible care and attention.

Our child enjoys coming to school and feels encouraged to try their best and that, above all, speaks volumes about the positive impact King’s House School has on their pupils.
