Old King’s Reunion

We would like to thank those who attended this years’ reunion celebrating milestone anniversaries year as those (1955, 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995, 2005, and 2015).

Dr. Anne Cotton, Head of King’s College School, and Alexander Malmaeus, Chairman of the Old King’s Club welcomed attendees for refreshments and live music. Dr. Lucy Inglis, School Archivist, was there to lead tours.

It was a fantastic opportunity for OKC’s to reconnect with former classmates and teachers and to see the school as it is developing today.

Co-educational by 2035

King’s will become a fully co-educational school over the next decade. Girls and boys will be admitted into the Reception year at Wimbledon Common Prep School (Squirrels) in September 2027. Girls and boys will be admitted to year 3 (Transition) in the junior school at 7+ from September 2029, and at 8+ and 9+ in subsequent years, transferring to the senior school without a further examination as they do now. Girls and boys will be admitted to year 7 of the senior school at 11+ from September 2033, and to year 9 (fourth form) of the senior school at 13+ in September 2035. Girls and boys will continue to be admitted to the lower sixth (year 12) at 16+, as they are now.
