About The Kingsbrook School

Every single parent who responded to the most recent Parent View survey at The Kingsbrook School said they would recommend it to other families. That’s a perfect 100% recommend score, based on 12 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025. The school is heavily oversubscribed, with 569 pupils on roll against a stated capacity of just 16, which suggests demand far outstrips supply and that places are extremely hard to come by. Parents reported very high levels of satisfaction across the board: 100% of respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, feels safe, and that the school has high expectations. On behaviour, 91% felt the school makes sure pupils are well behaved, and 92% said bullying is dealt with quickly and effectively. Communication also scored strongly, with all parents agreeing the school lets them know how their child is doing and makes them aware of what they will learn.

Academically, the school sits within Buckinghamshire, a selective local authority where grammar schools dominate the top of the performance tables. The Kingsbrook School is a non-selective secondary, and while its own Progress 8 score is not available in the data, the local authority average for Progress 8 is 0.25, which is above the national average of zero. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection is not recorded in this data, so it is not possible to compare its rating against the 12 outstanding schools in the LA or the nearest outstanding school, Aylesbury Grammar School, which is 2.3 km away. The school offers a broad curriculum through to sixth form, and parents unanimously agreed there is a good range of subjects available. All respondents also said their child does well at the school, and 100% agreed the school supports their wider personal development.

The Kingsbrook School has a strong set of facilities for a state secondary, including a gymnasium, astro turf, science labs, a library, a dining hall, and a dedicated sixth form centre. Sports provision is varied, with tennis, martial arts, athletics, rowing, netball, swimming, and cross country all on offer. There is also a wide selection of clubs, from Book Club and Debate to Model UN, Young Enterprise, and a school newspaper. The school has no religious character and is mixed gender for ages 11 to 18. It is not a boarding school. The Parent View data on SEND support is inconclusive, as no parents responded to that specific question, so it is unclear how the school supports children with special educational needs. This school will suit families who value strong communication, high parental satisfaction, and a non-selective environment within a selective local authority, but who are prepared for intense competition for places.
