Our first ever Social Impact Report encapsulates our ongoing commitment to bursaries, partnerships and pupil social responsibility, and showcases the broad range of initiatives, provision and events which make a difference to our community and wider society.
Partnership programmes at King's include:
Widening access to pupils from all backgrounds is also of central importance to King's. For many years, means-tested partial bursaries have been awarded to support high-ability students to join or remain in the Senior School, in addition to emergency bursaries for families facing unexpected hardships.

This year, we have:
It is our aim to continue to develop our partnership and outreach programmes and to grow our endowment fund. By focusing on the impact of our work to-date, we are able to ensure that the greatest possible benefit can be gained from these efforts, and to refine our strategies to underpin even greater impact in future.
