Junior King’s is a co-educational day and boarding school

set in a stunning eighty-acre countryside location just two

miles from the city of Canterbury and only 50 minutes from

St Pancras Station, London. The school caters for children

aged 3-13 years with most pupils going on to the prestigious

King’s School, Canterbury.

A historic school, founded in 1879, but one that is never

stuck in history, Junior King’s stands out as a place bursting

with energy, dynamism and a real enjoyment of learning.

The children are at the heart of everything the school

does and there is a belief that with a positive and creative

approach comes happy, engaged children.

Junior King’s prides itself in its excellent pastoral care.

Academic results take care of themselves when children

are well looked after, feel safe, and have the time to reflect

on what they have done during the day. The school wants

children to experience success, a real love of what they

do, and a heightened sense of self-esteem and modest

confidence.

The school is constantly looking for new opportunities to give

the children a chance to discover their particular talents and

to flourish. The children do so well, and go so far, precisely

because the first goal is their happiness, which is achieved

by finding something each child is really good at. That is

then nurtured in an environment where independence, the

ability to exercise choice and to engage in self-evaluation

and reflection are paramount.

There is an aim to evolve the curriculum with the times

and think of new ways to foster important life skills such as

communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creativity

that will allow the children to excel in a future we can only

imagine. The extra-curricular enrichment programme offers

pupils a range of opportunities to develop their interests in

different areas, and includes fencing, dance, rowing, sailing,

horse riding, debating, current affairs and chess.
