Welcome to the King Alfred School website.

There is something quite distinctive about the King Alfred School. Unique amongst independent schools in its progressive roots, an absence of formality and petty rules allows us to treat young people as the individuals they are. By emphasising the development of a safe, non-competitive and relaxed community, we are able to claim both outstanding examination results and, perhaps more importantly, happy and confident students.
Embracing the inspirational surroundings of the Hampstead Heath fringes, our small but vibrant day-school offers a broad curriculum, an extensive extra-curricular and enrichment programme, and strives to remove the formal barriers found in many other educational establishments. Students dress casually and staff, known to all pupils by their first names, place tremendous value on the creation of friendly one to one working relationships.
Whether aged 4 or 18, the children in our care are put first, and we feel that we have created a community that sets itself apart from comparable schools. It is an atmosphere and a difference that is hard to describe in words…so please feel free to come and sample a little of it for yourselves.
