Welcome to Kings International College

I am confident that our website will provide you with much valuable information about the College and a flavour of the warm and positive nature of the working atmosphere and the rich vein of opportunities for all our students.

Underpinning our success is the high quality of relationships between our students and staff, based on mutual respect and strong commitment to high expectations and challenge.  Our students are happy, feel safe and enjoy coming to school.  The College offers a high level of care, guidance and support.  It is within this environment that students are able to thrive, exceed expectations and demonstrate considerable academic success whilst contributing to the wider community. Our students are proud of their achievements.  Perhaps not surprisingly, visitors have commented upon their exemplary behaviour.

The College has a well-qualified and enthusiastic staff team, intent on delivering great teaching and learning which engages and excites the students.  Staff are also keen to offer a range of extra-curricular activities which continue as a distinctive feature of the College.

Our success is highly dependent upon the support of parents and there is a strong sense of the partnership in helping each individual student to achieve.

I hope that the Prospectus and the recent issue of the Kings News will help to enrich your understanding of the College. 

Should you wish to visit the College, it will be a pleasure to show you around to gain a first-hand experience – please contact the College on 01276 683539 for an appointment.

Best wishes

Judith Langley

Old Operating Theatre Trip - 30 April 2012

On Monday 30th April, History GCSE students from Year 10 and 11 paid a visit to the Old Operating Theatre, Museum and Herb Garret in London, just across the road from Guy's Hospital. The roof garret of the 18th century church of St Thomas the Apostle contains what remains of Britain's oldest operating theatre. The theatre dates form 1821 and was contained within the attic space (or garret) of the church which was located next door to St. Thomas's Hospital. The theatre closed in 1862 when the hospital moved to Lambeth. The theatre witnessed one of the first (if not the first) use of anaesthesia and Florence Nightingale founded her School of Nursing at the old hospital. The museum not only contains an original operating theatre (with viewing gallery) but a collection of medical instruments from the past 150 years. The museum showed the students  how far medical science has improved over since the Victorian era. The highlight of the visit was seeing the theatre in action with one of the museum's staff talking us through a typical operation. This included a look at the methods used to amputate infected limbs as well as the instruments that were used. Both groups thank Nuhash Hussain and Daniel Wake for volunteering to be the patients in the demonstrations.

 

Big Diamond Jubilee Read Competition

As part of promoting reading and writing in schools, the National Literacy Trust, in partnership with Oxford University Press has launched a reading and writing competition to mark the Queen's 60 year reign. We, at Kings International, want to get our young students excited about reading and will be taking part in this new literacy challenge with all our year 7 students over the next 10 weeks. The students will embark on a voyage around Commonwealth countries as they read their chosen books.  They will follow their progress on a classroom wall map by collecting miles when they spend time reading both at home and in College. By reading solidly for 10 minutes, your child will collect 500 miles in a special reading passport and will be rewarded along the route as he/she travels through the countries.  On completion of the journey, each student should have collected 33,000 miles (or 11 hours of reading) and will be entered into a prize draw to win some fantastic prizes! If you would like to know more about this competition further information is available on www.literacytrust.org.uk
