EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE
We feel very lucky that Kingsthorpe college offers electives. My child is so happy to go to school on Wednesdays. He loves cooking and I hope he will be able to attend this elective later in the year. At the moment he's doing cold cases investigations and he absolutely loves it. Thank you for making school interesting, interactive, fun and different.
Kingsthorpe College is such a friendly and welcoming school. The pastoral support is outstanding — the form tutors and heads of year really know the students and go above and beyond to help them succeed. There’s a genuine sense of care and community that makes such a difference. All members of staff have been approachable when we have needed support with all our children.
Kingsthorpe College is an inclusive and supportive school with a clear set of values that are visible in both staff and students. The sense of community really stands out — it feels like a place where every child is valued and encouraged to do their best.
There’s such a fantastic range of opportunities available — from school trips and dance competitions to enrichment electives and the Duke of Edinburgh programme. The variety helps every student find something they’re passionate about.
The opportunities Kingsthorpe College provides are amazing. My child has been able to get involved in meaningful projects such as supporting the McCarthy-Dixon Foundation, and through the Student Leadership Team has gained confidence, leadership experience, and a sense of pride in contributing to the school community.
My child is genuinely happy at Kingsthorpe. She enjoys her lessons, and it’s clear that the teaching staff love what they do. Their enthusiasm makes learning enjoyable, and that positivity filters through to the students.
