Academics

Four qualifications. Every one of them has stages.

Choose the pathway, then the level inside it. O Level and IGCSE are different courses for the same age. A Level sits beside a BTEC equivalent route.

iLower Secondary

iLower Secondary is where KINGS begins for younger students. Lessons are live, groups stay small enough for a teacher to know who is following, and the two levels move from confidence to independence.

O Level

O Level at KINGS is taught as a sequence, not a single crowded year. Students know which stage they are in, what that stage is for, and what has to be true before they move on.

IGCSE

IGCSE suits students who want a broad international qualification with room for projects and practical work. KINGS splits it into three stages so the exam year is not the first time a student meets the standard.

A Level

After IGCSE or O Level, KINGS offers two ways forward. A Level is the academic route: fewer subjects, studied properly. The BTEC equivalent route is for students who do their best work through applied assignments and still want university-facing guidance.
