Our school
King’s School Hove has been approved by the Department for Education, for opening in September 2013. King’s will be an 11-18 Church of England (CE) secondary school. A continuation of the excellent CE offering at primary level can now be offered at secondary level in Brighton and Hove.
Although employing the most modern equipment and up-to-date teaching techniques, the school will have an unashamed focus on a traditional array of academic subjects and will aim to be ‘outstanding’.
The school will admit its first year 7 students in September 2013. Applications are now open.
Our vision
King’s aims to enable each young person to fulfil their potential, both academically and personally. King’s will be founded on Christian values and will foster a respectful, caring and supportive environment for its staff and students.
We promise to work together with our parents, students and the local community to create a school environment that inspires and equips our young people to go out into the modern world prepared for life in all its fullness.
Who are we?
We are a group of parents addressing a local demand for more choice of secondary school for young people and their parents. We believe that our new school, King’s CE School, with its distinctive Christian ethos and its focus on traditional subjects and high standards of behaviour and academic performance, will appeal to local families, whether or not they are part of a faith community.
We have partnered with a national education trust, Russell Education Trust and our local Church of England Diocese. The Russell Education Trust brings a proven track record of setting up Free Schools and a wealth of schools improvement and project management experience. The Diocese has enormous experience in education and has many outstanding schools in our local area.
