By making the most of Monday to Friday and providing individual attention together with excellent pastoral care, we create a sense of belonging for every pupil.
Welcome
Welcome to the Duke of Kent School website. We hope that you will find it gives you a useful introduction to what we offer here.
Our aim as a school is to nurture the talents and energy of each pupil in as creative and vibrant a way as possible. The quality we most like to see, from prospective and current pupils, is a spirit of enquiry. It is this spirit that produces a real appetite for learning and development.
Our programme requires a great deal of commitment from pupils and teachers. This commitment grows naturally in the unique atmosphere we have created at this school.
A family school
This is a small, family school, where all pupils can flourish, because we encourage success without fear of failure.
If you like what you see on this website, please come and visit us so that we can give you a fuller picture of what we have to offer. The School is often able to offer bursaries to children of families with RAF connections, where financial need can be demonstrated.
Extending to GCSE
From September 2009, Duke of Kent School will be offering local independent co-education from 3(+) to GCSE.
