KingsWay School - Senior Campus

Consider this. In Senior School Biblical studies is a compulsory subject. Every new period/subject is started with a prayer. Subject choices are limited. There is a massive exodus of students at the end of Yr.10. They mean what they say in their Mission Statement. Your local School is also good.

Teachers goes through your phone after school and check your photos. The bathrooms are really stinky and dirty. The school also took a basketball that belonged to a student from their locker and put in the sports shed and said unless they get proof of the ball belonging to them they will not get it back. Keep in mind that this ball was bought over 4 years ago. The teachers here also use violent languages sometimes swear making an unhealthy role model for students. The teachers here also treat you different depending on what your nationality is. Students from Asia are commonly told off more frequently than other students. Kingsway School is definitely not a school I would want to send my children to. Half the students vape and draw inappropriate pictures everywhere. The students are not allowed to wear big earrings but the teachers wear whatever they want. The teachers and staff call school a safe and eq place but it really isn’t. I understand teachers want to make sure you don’t have weird photos and they don’t want students stealing sports equipment but this is gone too far. Kingsway is not a good school

I had a great learning experience here and will probably send my kids here in the future. It helped me build my Faith and learn more, however as a relatively small school there weren't many subjects you could choose from so if you are looking more for academic results I would recommend another school but on the other hand if you are looking for a school to help build Christian character, KingsWay would be a good fit. A word of caution being some teachers may be homophobic and very opinionated when it comes to topics such as homosexuality, theory of evolution and dinosaurs existing in Genesis.

I studied at Kingsway School for 7 years (graduated 2020), And really enjoyed my time here.
First off, I'd like to say that Kingsway, while not being a terrible school, isn’t 100% perfect either. If you’re a young Christian who’s looking for a place to develop your understanding of Christianity and be surrounded by great peers, then Kingsway would be the school for you.
If you’re a recent believer or a student needing a place to study, this would not be my first recommendation. Although there are things at the school which are much better than others, such as the teachers involvement with the students. The school also has a very strong biblical view, which Is good in a lot of respects but can be very hardcore and has the possibility to push some newer believers away.

However, the teachers at this school make it so much better, depending on the lot you get. A few good names to throw around would be Pierre Barnard, Mr Daniel,  Ben Sharplin, Colin Thompson and Wes Williamson (ex teacher). These teachers have made my schooling so much better than it would have been without them. From my years of schooling at Kingsway, these teachers in particular have stood out to me as being very selfless and will do their best to help you with things you might need. If you have any questions to ask, from home life and education, through to Christianity, these teachers are here for you. The vast majority of Kingsway’s teachers will go out of their way if you need help with anything. The teachers care about the students and their futures unlike many other schools.

The school as a whole is very strong with their beliefs. It is a very tight knitted community that aspires to grow faith and bring everyone together through Christ, but can sometimes do the opposite. New believers are looking for a school they can learn about God and be in a comfortable/safe space. However, Kingsway's beliefs, can push away believers that have slightly different views.

This review is not written to look down upon Kingsway School, but to give possible helpful advice for future students.
Thank you for taking your time to read this
Sincerely, Andrew Hagyard

this school have my mate depression. he was later cured from that depression after he left the school. according to him whenever a teacher spoke to him in private their breath smelt so bad that he wanted to vomit.
