Regent High School became the first school to be a member of the King’s Cross Knowledge Quarter, and is currently the only secondary school member.  We work closely with a number of Knowledge Quarter partners, including the British Library, Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design, University of the Arts London, The Francis Crick Institute, the Wellcome Trust and others to provide additional opportunities for students, staff and parents/carers. 

Parking  

Driving to Regent High School is discouraged.  We are served by excellent transport links.  Parking around the school is limited and can be expensive.  Very limited on-site parking is available by prior arrangement for applicants with a specific need.  

Transport links  

Regent High School is a short walk from the mainline train and Underground stations at Euston, St Pancras International and King's Cross. Additionally, the London Underground station at Mornington Crescent is a few minutes' walk from the school.  A number of buses stop close to the school: the 46 and 214 on Crowndale and Pancras Roads; the 168 and 253 on Eversholt Street, and the 10, 30, 59, 73, 91, 205, 390, 476 stop outside the British Library or St Pancras International Station on Euston Road.  The Transport for London (TfL) website provides more information about travelling around London and a Journey Planner tool.
