About Kingston Educational Trust
It is my pleasure to introduce you to Kingston Educational Trust (KET), an educational charity founded in 2012 by three prominent local civic institutions: Kingston University, Kingston College and the Royal Borough of Kingston. We offer exceptional inclusive education to the local community.
Our heritage has meant that from the outset we benefited from an experienced and knowledgeable leadership base, with a trust board including seasoned educational professionals. In addition, our partnership with our members provides us with genuine differentiation from other local secondary schools with access to a range of opportunities from art exhibitions in the College gallery, school productions in the college theatre, joint projects with Design and Engineering students and university immersion days.
KET initially established The Kingston Academy, a new non-selective free secondary school, serving its local community in north Kingston. The school opened with its first Year 7 intake in September 2015 and the Sixth Form welcomed its first Year 12 students in September 2020.
In January 2022 KET converted to a multi academy trust and was delighted to welcome Fern Hill Primary School, located next door to The Kingston Academy, into the trust.
We maintain an absolute focus on the academic progress and personal development of all of our pupils. Our ability to deliver consistently excellent teaching and a compelling pupil experience in the classroom and beyond is our daily mission. Every detail of the architecture of our schools flows from this central focus on pupil progress and equipping them for the future beyond the school walls. We also set great store on very high standards of behaviour in school and have established orderly, calm and supportive learning environments.
We recognize that our staff are essential to delivering consistently outstanding education and provide them with multiple opportunities for career advancement and professional development.
I very much look forward to making the most of the opportunities that membership of Kingston Educational Trust affords our schools. If you are interested in finding out more about us, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
