King’s Foundation Shortlisted for Prestigious Awards
As the academic year draws to close, The King’s Worcester Foundation is delighted to announce that all three of its schools have been shortlisted for a number of prestigious awards in this year’s Independent School of the Year (ISOTY) Awards.
Covering a broad spectrum of categories, King’s Hawford has been shortlisted for the Independent Pre-Prep School of the Year Award, whilst King’s St Alban’s receives a shortlisting for the award of Independent School of the Year for Student Well-being.
For the second year running, King’s Worcester Senior School has been shortlisted for the title of Co-Educational School of the Year.
The Independent School of the Year awards are designed to showcase independent school success stories and celebrate the extraordinary pupil experience provided during the last academic year. This year there are 23 award categories, with 100s of entries submitted by Independent Schools from across the UK.
The news of the shortlisting is another fantastic achievement for King’s, which sits alongside our recent recognition in The Sunday Times Top 10 West Midlands Independent Secondary School league and also the recent Top 20 UK Nursery Group Award received by the King’s Nurseries for the third year running.
Gareth Doodes, Foundation Headmaster at King’s Worcester, commented, “We are so delighted to have been shortlisted in so many categories once again this year. It is a wonderful acknowledgement that our schools are whole-heartedly dedicated to our co-educational provision from Nursery through the entire educational journey to our Sixth Form. It is a well-deserved testament to our enthusiastic, dynamic and experienced staff.”
Finalists will be announced in September, with the awards ceremony taking place later in the year.
