Our Facilities

Knightsbridge School
Knightsbridge School was founded in 2006. This wonderful building in Lennox Gardens was originally two large townhouses with high ceilings. It became the Danish Embassy, the American School, and then for 40 years was the Hellenic College before opening up to the local community as KS. Its large windows and grand staircase add to the bright and welcoming atmosphere in the reception area which hosts morning music performances. The delightful Assembly Hall alongside spacious Reception classrooms gives a real sense of creative and learning excitement alongside a bubbling science lab, an enriching art studio up in the gods, an all-singing and dancing dining room. We also have individual music practice rooms for our 1:1 lessons, and pioneering Place2Be counselling rooms where students, parents, and teachers can receive support, training, and services.

Royal Hospital / Burton Court
Royal Hospital
Connecting with older generations is key at KS. Since inception in 2006 The Royal Hospital has remained one of our key charities and beneficiaries in the community. Chelsea pensioners visit to reiterate service and more recently we have shared poems through Poetry Together. Every Remembrance Day, Pensioners attend our Remembrance Day Service where we remember together.
Burton Court
Owned by The Royal Hospital, Burton Court is a great space within walking distance where we have some of our Games and Physical Education lessons. We also hold our KS Staff vs KS Parents matches in rounders, football, and cricket and each year the KS Parents Association host their summer party here.
