Join our School, Join our Community

When you join Kents Hill Park School, you don’t just join a school, you become part of a supportive and innovative community.

As an ‘all-through’ school that opened in September 2018, with 750 pupils in our Secondary phase and 330 in our Primary phase; we are in the enviable position of being able to know all of our pupils and staff really well, providing fantastic opportunities at every stage.

We have a really clear vision and are ambitious in everything we do. The ‘all-through’ nature of our school sets us apart and provides a huge range of exciting opportunities.

Our Vision and Ethos

Our Recruitment

The right attitude and ethos are more important than vast experience. 

Our ethos is based around traditional values and high expectations of behaviour and care, the staff that join us all share these beliefs.

 We are looking for committed and enthusiastic staff to help shape the future of our pupils and the strategic direction of the school. All of our roles offer the chance to work across all phases of the school, providing career development well beyond a single phase.

We strive to develop Confident, Independent and Forward-Thinking pupils at every stage of their education, from EYFS to KS4, and the same is true for every one of our staff.

As part of Kingsbridge Educational Trust, Kents Hill Park School belongs to a group of well-established, high-performing and successful schools, where providing the very best in teaching and learning is at the heart of what we do. The ‘all-through’ model allows us to do that for every pupil at each stage of their education.
