Kingswood College is rethinking education for a brighter future. The world has changed beyond imagination. We believe it’s time to transform education too. We can’t keep educating using an outdated 19th-century model as our base. After all, nothing is more important than your child’s education. At Kingswood College we’re not waiting for the future to arrive. We’re shaping our own – for the benefit of all our students. That’s why we’ve developed an inspiring new approach to learning called the Kingswood Future Learning model.

Developed from extensive research, Future Learning promotes an array of cross-curricular skills in a hands-on learning environment.

School days now look and sound different, with no bells and a much more flexible timetable. The traditional school uniform has been replaced with active wear and each day involves physical activity.

Future Learning removes existing barriers to education and expands traditional classroom structures with collaborative, project-based learning using proven strategies. Our teachers mentor students, closely monitoring their progress and growth at a personal level so they can go out into the world with confidence.

We’d love to meet you on a School Tour, so you can discover the Kingswood College difference for yourself.
