Our curriculum is built upon a strong foundation of Literacy and Numeracy, carefully balanced to cultivate independence, self-esteem, and confidence, all essential skills for future success. We are dedicated to nurturing happy, well-rounded individuals who are inspired to love learning and thrive.

Why Choose Knightsbridge for Primary School?

As an independent primary school in London, our 5 – 11 school is all about building the foundation laid in Early Stages and preparing pupils for their +11 exams and entry to the UK’s leading senior schools (if they choose not to stay). As a school, we have an impeccable academic track record, with six scholarships awarded towards the end of our 2025-26 year.

Academic Excellence & Future Ready Skills

We instil a love of learning and confidence in digital skills, ensuring pupils achieve top results and are supported through a smooth transition to Senior School. With specialised teachers for each subject and a comprehensive, preparatory Junior Curriculum, our pupils can enjoy the best learning that London has to offer:

and academic rigour, we also pay close attention to the wellbeing and care of our pupils. Combined with learning, this values-led approach leads to what we call an “eco-system of happiness“. Guided by the KS Code, our close-knit, diverse primary school community instils the social and emotional intelligence pupils need to become confident and responsible global citizens. This includes personalised wellbeing support like Place2Be, which builds genuine resilience and confidence in every happy pupil, as well as unparalleled enrichment in the heart of London.

It may be gauche to admit, but it does pay to have such a prime Knightsbridge location for our pupils to offer unparalleled breadth of experience through extensive clubs, trips, and leadership opportunities. Pupils enjoy frequent Junior Sports in premium facilities and varied activities several times a week, ensuring a balanced, whole-child approach to learning – or explore their creative side with our Junior Performing Arts. We maintain a close partnership with families, ensuring you are fully informed and invited to participate in school life through regular communications and community events.

Junior pupils sitting entrance exams for senior schools have secured excellent +11 results and secured places and scholarships across academics, sport, music and drama in recent years. As pupils near the end of Junior School, our Senior Transition support helps prepare them and their families for the move into Senior School or on to their chosen next school.
