Kingshott joins the Independent Schools Association
We are delighted to have been accepted as a member of the Independent Schools Association (ISA), joining over 650 independent schools across the country.
"Kingshott has, for many years, been a member of IAPS - the Independent Association of Prep Schools," says David Weston, Headmaster. "As we move to offer GCSEs, adding Years 9 through to 11 over the coming years, we are delighted to now be a part of the ISA, which supports schools with pupils from Early Years all the way up to age 18."
Kingshott was warmly welcomed to the association by the ISA President, Lord Lexden, the National Chair Mr Jeff Shaw, and Members of ISA's Executive Council and Area Officers. Membership to the ISA opens up a plethora of opportunities that will benefit all children and staff, from Nursery up to GCSE year groups. There are considerable professional development resources, which all of Kingshott's teachers will be able to benefit from, along with opportunities to collaborate, to share knowledge and best practice.
"I am particularly excited about the vast number of fabulous enrichment opportunities that the ISA will offer our pupils, in art, drama, sport, writing and other competitive and extra-curricular activities," adds Mr Weston. "We are looking forward to joining in with all that the ISA has to offer - there are regular regional and national competitions, and I particularly hope our children will have the chance to take part in some of the sporting activities at world-leading venues such as the London Olympic Park."
"Our aim, to deliver an outstanding education to our older pupils, and to support all of our staff working across all of our age groups, will be supported by our new membership to the ISA," concludes Mr Weston. "We look forward to benefiting from all the association has to offer over the coming months and years ahead."
