Welcome to New King's Road School

 

We are a friendly and supportive school at the centre of our local community. Our children are happy and settled here.  In 2023, we retained our Ofsted 'Good' rating and in September 2025, we became part of the Quality First Education Trust. In September 2026, we changed our name to New King's Road School (from Thomas's Academy). We believe in providing an excellent education for all. 

 

School Tours

Attending a school tour is a great way to find out more about our school. We offer regular small group tours for parents and carers throughout the year. To find out more and book your place, please visit our School Tours page.

Change to Admissions Arrangements for 2027-28

The Quality First Education (Q1E) Trust recently consulted on a proposed change to the admission arrangements for New King's Road School (formerly Thomas's Academy), to remove priority given to current Nursery pupils for Reception places and to to give priority to the children of staff at the school (after siblings of current pupils.) The consultation closed on 30 January 2026 and the trust board considered all responses. The Trust has now made this change for Reception entry in September 2027 and beyond. Our hope is that this change will support our families and make our admissions policy easier to understand. 

You can download our consultation document for full details of the proposal that was adopted.
