Taking a well earned rest from studying hard this morning, our students have enjoyed another Games Club at lunchtime today.

We have cause to celebrate again today with the news that Udita V in Year 13 has received her conditional offer to study Law at @durham_uni. Well done Udita, you should be very proud - we are!

Our extracurricular activities allow our students to explore new areas, discover talents and develop their skills. Here is our updated timetable for this half term.

Congratulations to our Year 13 student Lewis M who has just received a conditional offer to study Mathematics at @durham_uni in September. We are very proud of you!

Confidence comes from preparation—and our Year 11 and 13 students have done just that through their exam-booster and RAS sessions, and their individual revision time too. You’ve got this Team Kingsmeadow! Here is the timetable for the remainder of the week.

The mock exam season has officially started. To give you an insight into our students' experience, Mr Barrett has recorded this video for parents and carers. We hope you find it interesting and helpful. The video is available on our YouTube channel at https://t.co/Isz5zT05Ag

We are excited for the opening of our new catering pod on Monday which will be serving delicious street food options. Meal deals, snacks, drinks, and healthy options will be available too. The pod will be serving food in addition to our regular service in the dining hall.

Through the schools raising attainment and exam booster sessions, through to their own individual revision time, our Year 11 students are well prepared for their upcoming mock exams. Congratulations and well done to our latest top three performing PiXL maths students.

Thank you to our Year 10 parents and carers who braved the freezing cold this evening to meet with our students' subject teachers. They were all met with a warm Kingmeadow welcome, and it was great to see them again.

Our next Sixth Form open evening takes place on Thursday 12 February. Last year's event was very attended so please make sure you secure your place by booking early. We promise you a very warm welcome! Book now at this link https://t.co/BWJtx1TiNE

At the beginning of every half term our students are welcomed back to school by Mr Barrett in their year group morning assembly. You can watch the latest Headteacher's assembly at

A new term, a new week, and a new word for our Key Stage 3, 4, and 5 students. Well done to form groups 7AFR, 8CBN, 9HBA, 10ABR, and 11CLE who are our Kingsmeadow Word of the Week winners for w/c 15 December.

With the first of the 2026 mock exams beginning next week we thought this handy list of important dates would be helpful for all of our parents and carers.

Showing up to school each day is one of the most powerful choices your child can make for their future - giving themselves a chance to learn new skills, connect with friends, and grow. There's only one day to go for your child to be in with a chance of winning an iPhone 17 Pro.

As well as the Accelerated Reader programme, we offer students the opportunity to build their core phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension skills through a structured, adaptive platform called Lexia. Here are this term's winners and reading champions. Well done everyone!

As part of their English Literature A Level studies, our Sixth Form students are on their way to London to see Othello at the @TRH_London where they will see first-hand Shakespeare's domestic tragedy depicting heroism, villainy, death and resolution.
