Realising your potential at Kent College
Since its foundation KC has always excelled in the academic, musical and sporting spheres. We believe passionately that the development of individual talents unlocks student potential, causing character, confidence and creativity to grow that will stand students in good stead for the rest of their lives. We are an inclusive school but the individual attention and support that pupils receive enables them to work towards the highest standards.
Our scholarship programme allows us to nurture those who already have talents in particular areas and are designed for pupils from all backgrounds who would benefit from the unique educational experience offered at KC.
What scholarships are available?
Scholarships are awarded for Academic achievement, Art and Design, Drama, Music and Sport for entry in year 7, year 9 and year 12.
Academic ambition
Students at KC continue to achieve some of the best results in Kent at A Level and for Cambridge Technicals and the College is regularly in the top 10 schools in the UK for the International Baccalaureate which means our IB scholarship programme is very popular for Sixth formers wanting to continue to study a wider range of subjects after their GCSEs.
Top class sports coaching
At KC we boast a number of highly experienced coaches who have played at county, national or international level. Their expertise makes all the difference for our aspiring athletes as they support and guide them to thrive in their chosen sport.
Embracing the performing arts
5 choirs, 7 orchestral groups, 33 peripatetic music teachers, 21 co-curricular arts clubs, LAMDA lessons, numerous performances and productions in our Great Hall as well as nationally and abroad each year provides our young performers with a cornucopia of opportunities to develop their musical and dramatic talents.
The impact of being a scholar
Scholars should be “loving what they do” as they develop in a high performance environment. By contributing and playing an active role within their chosen field, scholars
pick others up to raise the standard of everyone within the school community, by
being a part of something bigger that makes Kent College a better place through their
contribution, We want our scholars to thrive and be the leaders and standard bearers of their interests.
