Key Information For Parents (Mid Years)
Welcome to King's High and the start of your daughter's journey with us. The information within this section should be read in conjunction with the Terms & Conditions of the Parent Contract (sent with the offer of a place) and the Registration Form and Acceptance Form. Please do not hesitate to let us know if you have any queries at all.
WELCOME FROM DR BURLEY
I am absolutely delighted to be welcoming your daughter to King’s High and I look forward to seeing her settle in and feel at home very quickly. Please do reassure her from me that the expert staff here, and our students, will do all they can to ensure a smooth transition. It is very likely that your daughter will be kept so busy during that first term, taking part in the broad variety of opportunities on offer and meeting new people, that being in a new school will soon be a distant memory.
In addition to your daughter adapting to her new environment, we appreciate that this will be new for you too as parents. We have therefore drawn together helpful information on these pages to aid you in preparing for September. You will also receive a copy of the King's High Handbook in advance of the new term, which contains detailed information about school life.
Please do read through each of the areas on these pages, and complete the forms in each section where requested. These include:
Compulsory Forms
- Your Child's Data Form
- Medical Information
- Parental Responsibility Statement
Optional Forms
- LAMDA Lessons (if applicable)
- Instrumental and Vocal Music Tuition (if applicable)
Please also take care to review the following requirements:
- School Uniform
- Sports Kit and mouthguards
- Stationery
- Information Technology and BYOD
The end of the current academic year is fast approaching, and I would like to take the opportunity now to wish you and your daughter a very enjoyable final term with her current school, and a relaxing summer holiday.
I look forward to welcoming you through the doors at King’s High in September.
With best wishes,
Dr Stephen Burley
Head Master
