Kingsworth International School

Kingsworth emphasizes an inquiry-driven approach that encourages students to ask questions, explore diverse perspectives, and take ownership of their learning. The school culture is built on the values of curiosity, inclusion, wellness, integrity, and achievement. By maintaining small class sizes, the school ensures that every student is known and supported in their individual academic and personal growth.

The school offers a UK-based curriculum adapted for international learners, with a bilingual primary section that integrates English and French. Primary education focuses on inquiry-driven learning, text-based analysis, and transdisciplinary connections. In the secondary section, students are empowered to choose subjects aligned with their learning profiles and future career aspirations, leading toward internationally recognized British and Cambridge qualifications.

The school provides English as an Additional Language (EAL) support for secondary students who require it. A dedicated wellbeing program is integrated across all age groups, featuring a buddy system for new students, regular wellbeing assemblies, and daily meetings with form tutors. Safeguarding is a core priority, with all staff receiving annual training to ensure a safe and supportive environment.

Kingsworth is a non-selective international school that accepts applications on a rolling basis for students aged 2.5 to 18. The admissions process involves a case-by-case assessment of each applicant's portfolio rather than formal entrance exams. While there is no application fee, a registration fee is required upon official acceptance and enrollment. Prospective families are encouraged to book a school tour or a trial day to experience the school environment firsthand.

The school operates on a term-based system, including Autumn, Yule, and Spring terms. Primary school hours are 8:30 to 15:30, Monday through Friday, with an early dismissal on Wednesdays before lunch. Secondary school hours are 8:30 to 16:00, Monday through Friday.

The school operates across two campuses housed in elegant former family residences in Paris’ 16th arrondissement. The Copernic campus serves the primary section, while the Passy campus hosts the secondary and sixth-form students. Both locations provide a nurturing environment designed to support small class sizes and collaborative learning.

The primary section offers after-school activities such as multisport and cooking. The secondary section features student-run lunchtime clubs, including a yearbook and newsletter, alongside a variety of after-school programs led by teachers and guest professionals.
