I know there are many followers of Kingsdale on the forum , some very pro some that not so. Just an update for any parent starting yr 7 or any parent considering a place this year. Things are back on track ; best results ever 70 % Eng 70% Maths 80% Science gcse A-C. Many of those results achieved in yr 10. After a rotten couple of years with intensive media & on line speculation I am confidant as a parent that things are back to what should be & even more confidant results are true as still moderated by exam boards. This alongside the amazing attitude of the Kingsdale community & outstanding music /maths / art departments make it a great school. Good luck anyone applying ,put them high it is worth the lottery gamble
