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 children 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 resilience to succeed in their next steps in life. With specialist subjects starting in Nursery such as French, Drama, Music and Computing, creativity runs through everything we do and opportunity is everywhere — on the pitch, on the stage, in the classroom, and beyond.

We are a mixed ability school, catering to every pupils unique needs. Each pupil is encouraged to discover their talents and passions, be it on the sports field, performing on stage, in the classroom or much more, with support and encouragement from our King’s House community.

Our 35-acre Sports Ground in Chiswick is enjoying by all King’s House children — whether that be by our youngest learners visiting Forest School, or our older children who enjoy our sports facilities for games, PE lessons and sports fixtures.

King’s House pupils go on to a wide range of senior schools including day, boarding, single sex and co-ed schools at 11 and 13 years. We work closely with families as children progress throughout the school to make sure each child goes on to the right senior school for them.

History

{

King’s House School offers a great balance between academic achievement, extracurricular activities, and character development, with supportive staff and teachers creating a nurturing environment and strong sense of community.

We are very excited that our child will attend his first choice senior school! We know this result can’t be achieved without the great supports and guidance from King’s House. We’d like to express our sincere gratitude for your kind advice and special attention you’ve paid to our child.

Year 8 Parent
{
King’s House Nursery has been an outstanding choice for our child’s early education. The well-structured curriculum balances play-based learning with developmental milestones perfectly, while the caring and supportive staff create a nurturing environment where every child feels valued. We’ve been particularly impressed by the low staff-to-student ratio, which ensures our child receives individual attention and support throughout the day.

Since starting at King’s House, we’ve noticed remarkable improvements in our child’s social skills, confidence, and readiness for school, alongside positive changes in behaviour at home. We couldn’t recommend this nursery more highly to other parents seeking quality early years education.
