KINGSMEAD SCHOOL LEADS THE WAY WITH
EXCEPTIONAL ACADEMIC RESULTS AND A
TRANSFORMATIVE APPROACH TO EDUCATION
Kingsmead School in Hoylake has a proud history on
the Wirral, it was founded back in 1904 as a preparatory
school and has always been marked out for its unusually
caring, family ethos and personalised approach to
learning.
Today Kingsmead School provides a bespoke education
that is transformative for the child and life-changing for
the family, providing the essential tools to make children
future-ready. This approach to enhanced learning has
produced an exceptional academic record, with GCSE
and 11+ pass rates of over 80%. Sixth Form provides 1:1
tuition at A Level and BTEC; this is a level of individual
support rarely seen elsewhere.
Kingsmead is set in over 20 acres of leafy grounds and
playing fields in Hoylake, including a superb indoor heated
swimming pool, with excellent state of the art facilities for
food and nutrition, drama and music, science and ICT
and several peaceful study areas tucked away for pupils
seeking quiet spaces in which to prepare during critical
academic stages. The school’s extended day is punctuated
with long morning and lunchtime breaks, filled with a
wealth of sports and clubs, ensuring a healthy balance to
every day.
Supporting the academic input is an enormous range
of co-curricular opportunities, which further expand
horizons, build confidence and develop independence and
leadership. The school holds regular whole-school events
and concerts, bringing the entire community together
and building strong and supportive relationships between
pupils of all ages.

Early Years education covers Kindergarten to Reception,
(ages 2 to approximately 5) where a home-from-home
environment is offered, which is stimulating, secure,
safe and happy. Children learn to play together in family
sized groups, building their confidence and imagination
through play-based activities. Each child is gently eased
into these new surroundings with care and close attention
to their individual needs.
This remarkable school now has a recently-opened Sixth
Form and also offers boarding facilities opening up new
opportunities for families looking for the best education
for their children. The school offers full-boarding, weekly
boarding and flexi-boarding for pupils from the age of
nine.
Wrap-around care, for day pupils living at a distance or to
support working parents is also available at the popular
Holiday Club and After-school club for all ages, 49 weeks
a year.
Kingsmead holds one Scholarship Day per year, in
November; Scholarships in Music, Art and Sport are
offered.
