King’s Bruton

Senior co-education school in Bruton, Somerset

King’s Bruton is a remarkable school with over 500 years of history. Life at King’s is full of variety and opportunities and where pupils enjoy a broad and challenging academic curriculum. The key to our success, and increasing popularity, is to combine our relatively small size with a high-quality education.


In recent years we have had outstanding GCSE, A Level and BTEC results with most of our pupils going on to their first choice of university. Our hockey teams regularly reach National Finals, there are over 70 pupils in our full Choir, whilst our 200-seat theatre is the venue for outstanding drama. Our thriving CCF is one of the oldest in the country, and over half of our senior pupils undertake Silver and Gold Duke of Edinburgh Awards. King’s pupils are encouraged to respect themselves and others, to adopt a positive attitude, and to strive to be the best they can be. Pupils leave here confident but not arrogant and fully prepared to contribute to life beyond the school gates.


The combination of King’s Bruton and Hazlegrove Prep School as a Foundation provides a busy, happy, and thriving community and we would be delighted to welcome you for a visit. 

 

With ex-Servicemen in teaching and support roles, King’s has a deep understanding of the unique circumstances associated with military life. The School works hard to ensure our provision remains affordable for all service families whilst ensuring the best levels of education and care. We currently offer a 20% discount on the fees.
