Welcome to King's Magna - A Middle School That Gives You The Choice
For our middle school pupils, King’s Magna brings an exciting taste of the opportunity that awaits them at GCSE and A Level.
Being in Years 6 to 9 is the time to discover passions with a supportive team of specialist teachers to nurture budding talents and introduce the wealth of subject choices and enrichment activities on offer. Every student in King's Magna chooses two lessons each week to pursue an academic, creative or sporting activity.
The curriculum offers plenty of scope to try new things and we encourage them to make a free choice from the many available options, often discovering new passions along the way.
This freedom to choose culminates in Year 9, where students can try four potential GCSE subjects to pursue at QE College or QE Faculty.
Enrichment
Time to discover what you love.
There is so much to enjoy and learn from outside of the classroom so King’s Magna timetables two hours of enrichment activities each week. There are over 70 activities to choose from – all great opportunities to explore new hobbies and interests, to build confidence and to develop important skills and aptitudes such as teamwork, communication, resilience and much more.

A Community That Supports You
With small class sizes and a secure and dedicated space, King’s Magna offers a warm and welcoming learning environment where every pupil knows that they belong.
Our Heads of Year and Wellbeing team work together to ensure pupils are happy, engaged and thriving. Heads of Year monitor pupil progress and form tutors meet with their forms three times each week to share news or opportunities around school.
Space To Be Yourself
The Wellbeing team provides support and a comforting space for anyone needing a helping hand.
As well as enrichment activities at lunchtime, students can attend one of the 30 Wellbeing Sessions available each week. Our dedicated Pastoral Centre is also a relaxing space for students to chat to staff, read magazines, play games or to enjoy a hot chocolate.
