About King's College London Maths School
Parents considering King’s College London Maths School will find a highly sought-after institution. The school is significantly oversubscribed, with 156 pupils on roll against a capacity of just 140, indicating strong demand for its specialist maths and science focus. While the Department for Education’s Parent View data is not provided here, the oversubscription ratio alone signals that families are actively choosing this school over others in Lambeth. The school is a state-funded, mixed sixth-form for ages 16 to 19, with no religious character, and is led by headteacher Timothy Bateup. Its location in Lambeth places it within a competitive local secondary landscape, where only four of 23 schools are rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The nearest Outstanding school, Oasis Academy South Bank, is just 0.3 km away, but King’s College London Maths School’s specialist status and academic results clearly set it apart for families prioritising advanced maths and science pathways.
