Kinver High School is part of the Invictus Education Trust, to learn more about the Trust please click here or visit our website here
Kinver High School is widely recognised as a friendly and welcoming school community where all are valued. We aim to support and challenge all our students to work hard and have high aspirations for academic success and personal development. We do this through a curriculum designed to ensure that students develop the wide range of skills and attributes required to be a successful member of society as well as gaining the best possible recognised qualifications; a clear and positive behaviour and rewards system which ensures the school has a positive learning environment and a comprehensive student support structure to make sure all students can access help and guidance when they need it.
Kinver is a small 11- 18 secondary school providing for about 650 students. Being relatively small for a secondary school is seen by parents and students as highly beneficial because we are able to know all of our students well and help them thrive in a caring and close knit environment. Our students flourish in this setting and as a consequence tend to be the best advertisement the school could have. On a regular basis, visitors to Kinver High comment on how well-behaved, friendly and confident our students are. The attainment of students at Kinver is consistently above the national average and their behaviour is very good.
On the 1st March 2015, our school became an academy as a founding member of the Invictus Education trust along with three other local schools, Ellowes Hall Sports College, Crestwood School and Wombourne High School. The reason for taking this exciting step was to add even greater capacity to our ability to provide the best possible education for our students. Having now been joined by Leasowes High School and Pedmore High School, the six schools of the Trust work together to achieve that aim. We are six separate academies but take every opportunity to ensure that our combined efforts add up to a better educational experience for the three thousand students across the Trust.
Following from our conversion to academy status, we changed our school name, which now takes its name from its location in the beautiful rural setting of Kinver. The school serves a wide area comprising of the South Staffordshire villages of Kinver, Stourton, Swindon, Bobbington and Trysull. In addition, it is important to note that we also have many of our students come to us from the Stourbridge and wider Dudley areas, Cookley and Kidderminster, the South of Wolverhampton and Shropshire.
