At all key stages, Kingston schools consistently achieve results well above the national average. These high standards make our schools extremely popular with parents inside and outside the Borough. As a result most schools are regularly over-subscribed.
Kingston upon Thames LA provides a wide range of support services for schools and pupils. These include the Education Inspection and Advisory Service, Equality Support Services, Assessment and Support for Learning, The Educational Psychology Service and Social Inclusion.
Kingston upon Thames LA aim to maintain and create the best learning and leisure opportunities for all the people of Kingston. To achieve this for children and young people, we recognise that schools need a range of high quality support services, freedom to use the available funding as they see fit, and a responsive and supportive LA. We seek to meet the needs of schools in all these ways, working in close partnership with head teachers, governing bodies and the local teacher associations.
The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames is an equal opportunities employer.
