The teaching at Thomas’s Kensington is inspiring and imaginative, enabling our pupils to achieve excellent academic results – the ideal preparation for their move to a range of superb secondary schools. Pupils of different abilities are challenged and supported throughout their journey at Thomas’s Kensington and we pride ourselves on ensuring that each child is treated as an individual. The approach to teaching and learning is exciting, progressive, and challenging. Change is eagerly embraced by colleagues and pupils who share a passion for learning and finding new and better ways of doing things, and standards are high. Creativity, thinking skills and instilling a thirst for independent learning are at the heart of our approach. Traditional and didactic teaching methods would feel alien at Thomas’s. INSET and courses are a strongly established culture within the school. Academic standards are very high, and there is a strong and vibrant co-curricular programme emphasising breadth. The school was recognised by Ofsted in 2008, 2011, 2017 and 2020 as ‘outstanding’ in each category. We have since moved to ISI and await our next inspection. Demand for places in the school is considerable, with most children arriving at the school in Reception. Children leave at 11+ for London day and boarding schools or move to Thomas’s Battersea.
