Welcome
to King’s High, Warwick, an independent day school
offering an outstanding, all-round education for girls aged between 11 and 18.
Our school is a warm, lively community and has a beautiful and historic setting in the heart of Warwick. We are now in our 128th year and enjoy a reputation of which we are rightly proud both for academic success and for the personal development of our girls.
I hope this website
gives you a flavour of the kind of education we provide, but I encourage you to
visit us and see for yourself just how much we have to offer. We all look
forward to welcoming you.
On Friday 25 April 2008, two sixth form pupils from King’s High School were presented with prestigious awards.
The 16th Gertrude Bark Award was presented to Madison Plantier. The award is for a student of literature, music or drama. The Trustees had a difficult task to choose one winner from nine gifted young people. 18-year-old Madison receives the award in recognition of her achievements as a poet. She impressed the Trustees by the breadth of her studies, covering both arts and sciences, and by her academic achievements. Her linguistic abilities enable an adventurous exploration in the world of literature, including Japanese, and ancient Greek literature.
The Trust makes one award a year to a Sixth Form student of literature, drama or music in the Warwick and Leamington area, looking for talent, enthusiasm and some indication that their contributions benefit their school and community. The standard of applicants is always high and Madison is to be congratulated on her achievement.
The Mary Dormer Harris Memorial Bursary was awarded to Chloe Riddle (18) in recognition of her outstanding commitment to Sixth Form Studies. The award is made to a Sixth former who shows promise in the widest possible sense. Chloe is an able scientist and a student of English literature.
Both girls have exciting plans for Higher Education.
