  • EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES

    At The King’s School Worcester, our mission is to give young people the opportunity to excel.

    The King’s Foundation continues to grow and thrive. We now educate 1,500 students from the ages of 2 to 18 with equal numbers of girls and boys.

    The senior school is proud of its beautiful inner city site, nestling close to the historic Cathedral in the centre of Worcester. But sport, fitness, drama, dance, music, and debating are all essential elements in a full and enriching education and they require modern facilities and expansive space.

    Over fifteen years, King’s has undertaken an extensive programme of development and invested more than £12million to meet the future needs of our pupils and the demands of a modern education. Former boarding houses have been converted into modern teaching facilities. The Science laboratories have all been refurbished. We have created a Mathematics centre, two new ICT suites, and a modern Design and Technology department. We have built an award winning new Library, an Art School and, most recently, the magnificent Boathouse complex.

    Our goal now is to create a superb new Sports and Performing Arts Centre - The SPACE. This development will incorporate a new sports hall, dance and drama studios, changing facilities and a fitness suite, a sixth form centre and extensive new teaching facilities including an expansion of our Modern Languages facility.

  • AROUND THE SPACE

  • The Campaign

    The impact of The SPACE on students and the wider community will be immense. But this is a major project and we cannot achieve it using the School’s resources alone.

    The Governors have secured an ideal site and plans and permissions are in place.

    The project will be completed in two stages and we aim to begin work on the first stage in March of 2013.

    90% of the funds for this stage have already been found but we are dependent on the support of the whole community to secure the remaining £1 million.

    An additional £500,000 over and above the £1 million will enable the Governors to include the Sixth Form Centre in the first stage of the project.
