The Inspired learning approach
Our approach is defined by supportive academic excellence and the exploration of life skills to develop students’ self-confidence and self-assurance.
We do this by delivering a focus on the individual and offering a broad curriculum based on the three pillars. Academics are at the centre of our approach but are also complemented equally by Performing Arts and Sport. This rich curriculum ensures that every student can discover their passions and develop their skills. Students are encouraged and supported to excel across all areas, even those they find more difficult.
Our Three Pillar Approach
1. Academics
Central to all our schools, our core of academia teaches our students critical and lateral thinking to inform the understanding and application of a wide variety of disciplines. At King’s College School, we follow the British Curriculum to Year 11 and then the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme to Year 13.
2. Sport
Inspired’s sporting pillar stands for health, wellbeing, fun, motivation, self-discipline,
and self-esteem. Whether it’s about involving students in team sports or introducing them to individual pursuits, we aim to provide an athletics programme to suit every student. King’s College School students can get involved in a broad range of sporting pursuits including football, basketball, cricket, swimming, and tennis.
While some students in each school go on to achieve national and international honours, all students benefit from the fitness, enjoyment, and life-long interest that sport can spark. The physical exercise involved also contributes to the mental alertness necessary for successful study.
3. Performing Arts
The arts help to instil confidence and self assurance within our students to nurture and
develop their interests for life. This confidence is derived from performance, the appreciation of the arts as fundamental to the human experience, and a creative approach to all that our students do.
From drama lessons and public speaking to instrumental music lessons and visual arts, King’s College School students get to experience it all as part of the core curriculum.
The Bahamas
The Bahamas is a coral-based archipelago consisting of around 700 islands and islets, and more than 2,000 cays (coral reefs) spread over 100,000 square miles in the Atlantic Ocean.
Since its independence in 1973, The Bahamas has become one of the richest countries in the Americas due to its booming tourism and finance industries.
The country is blessed with immense natural beauty and a wonderful tropical climate, and temperatures rarely drop below 21 degrees Celsius. The Bahamas is politically stable, and the economy has a very competitive tax regime.
King’s College School, The Bahamas is based on the Western Road in Nassau, New Providence. This is the most populous island in The Bahamas containing more than 70% of the total population. Nassau is the island’s capital – it’s the centre of administration, commerce, education, law, and media.
