Kingsley School Devon is a proudly non-selective, fully inclusive boarding and day school set on the North Devon coast. Here, wellbeing comes first — and success follows naturally.
At Kingsley, we believe the foundation of every success — academic, personal, or sporting — is a young person who feels known, valued, and supported. Our core values of Appreciate, Be Active, Connect, Give and Learn run through every part of school life.
Inspired by Charles Kingsley, a North Devon author who believed in the transformative power of a holistic education, we combine modern thinking with traditional values to develop complete, compassionate global citizens.
A Kingsley education develops the whole person — building character virtues that last a lifetime.
Setting meaningful goals and pursuing them with energy and determination.
Working collaboratively, valuing every voice and achieving more together.
Staying the course when things are difficult, building resilience for life.
Acting with honesty and courage, even when no one is watching.
Finding creative solutions and approaching every challenge with curiosity.
Understanding and caring for others — the foundation of our Kingsley Family.
Kingsley offers a distinctive dual-pathway curriculum designed for the real world. The Core Curriculum provides a strong academic foundation across GCSE, A Level, BTEC, CTEC and ASDAN, ensuring routes to suit every ambition.
The Expansive Curriculum is where passions ignite. Delivered in specialist pathway sessions, students explore the Earth Centre, Coastal Adventures (Surf Academy), Performing Arts, STEM, and Sporting Excellence — gaining real qualifications alongside real-world experience.
Come and see us. Every family gets a personal tour, a chance to meet the team, and the time to ask every question.
