Overview

About Knightsbridge School

Knightsbridge School offers a vibrant and nurturing community spanning Early Years and Juniors through to a successful Senior School. The school blends academic excellence with an ecosystem of happiness and high pastoral standards. Located in central London, it makes use of local parks and museums to enrich learning and play. The school is part of the Dukes Education family, providing an all-through education journey with guaranteed entry at Nursery, Reception, and Year 7, subject to availability and suitability.

Our take

Independent co-ed all-through school in Kensington and Chelsea for ages 3–16. Selective entry, top-tier London fees.

Best for
  • Families wanting one school across the whole journey (ages 3–16) rather than separate prep + senior.
  • Families who prefer a co-educational setting over single-sex.
  • Children who can demonstrate strong academics at entry assessment — this is a selective school.
  • Families comfortable with top-tier London independent fees in exchange for the level of provision.
Watch-outs
  • Fees sit at the top of the London market. Factor in extras (uniform, trips, lunches, music tuition) before committing.
  • Selective entry — assume some form of assessment at the relevant entry point. Plan tutoring or familiarisation early if needed.
  • SEND provision isn't documented in our profile. If your child has an EHCP or specific learning needs, ask admissions about case-by-case capacity before applying.
