'''Kingston Grammar School''' is an independent and highly selective co-educational school in [[Kingston upon Thames]], [[Greater London]]. It is noteworthy for being able to trace its roots back to at least the [[13th century]], and has an outstanding academic record, with 2006 being one of the best years for [[General Certificate of Secondary Education|GCSE]] results; 68.8% of all grades being A or A*, and is known as a first class sports school, offering hockey and rowing with consistently good competition results. The hockey set-up at the school is of particular note having won several National Championships over the last decade, and the "Old Kingstonians Hockey Club" is highly respected in sporting circles.

==History==
[[File:The Lovekyn Chapel, Kingston - geograph.org.uk - 1273936.jpg|alt=the Lovekyn Chapel|thumb|Lovekyn Chapel]]
The school's history is traceable into the [[Middle Ages]], where there are references to schoolmasters like Gilbert de Southwell in 1272, described as "Rector of the Schools in Kingston", and to Hugh de Kyngeston in 1364 "who presides over the Public School there". Notable in the school's history are the founding and endowing of the Lovekyn Chapel by [[John Lovekyn|John]] and then Edward Lovekyn in [[1309]]-[[1352]] and later by [[William Walworth]] in [[1371]]. The chapel is still used by the school, and one of the few remaining [[chantry|chantry chapel]]s in England.

After the dissolution of the chantries in 1547, the chapel fell to the [[The Crown|Crown]] and was deconsecrated. It, and by now its substantial related endowments, fell to a court favourite, [[Richard Taverner]]. He preserved the chapel so when in [[1561]] the bailiffs of Kingston petitioned [[Elizabeth I of England|Queen Elizabeth I]] for a royal grammar school, the building was still usable.

The Queen granted the school a [[royal charter]] in 1561.<ref name="hist"/>
So when Elizabeth granted the school a [[Royal Charter]] in [[1561]], this provided several endowments, including the chapel and the various lands and buildings then attached to it. Because the chapel had housed a school prior to its dissolution by [[Henry VIII]], historians have said that it is probable Elizabeth was doing no more than giving life to something which her father had brought to an untimely end.


The school became a [[direct grant grammar school]] in 1946<ref>{{cite hansard | url=https://api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/written-answers/1946/may/31/grammar-schools-direct-grant-status | title=Grammar Schools (Direct Grant Status) |house=House of Commons | date=31 May 1946 | column_start=234W | column_end=234W }}</ref> as a result of the [[Education Act 1944]] and became independent in 1978 after the scheme was abolished by the [[Labour Government 1974–1979|1974–79 Labour Government]].<ref>{{cite hansard | url=https://api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/written-answers/1978/mar/22/direct-grant-schools |title=Direct Grant Schools |house=[[House of Commons of the United Kingdom|House of Commons]] | date=22 March 1978 | column_start=545 | column_end=545 }}</ref> In the same year, the first girls were admitted.
In [[1926]] the school accepted [[Grammar schools in the United Kingdom#Grammar Schools in the Tripartite System|direct grant]] status, but has long since reverted to full independence as a day school for boys and girls between the ages of ten and nineteen and is represented on the [[Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference]]. The school has remained true to its Grammar School heritage by offering a high proportion of academic and sporting scholarships as well fee assisted places.

On 1 May 1965, the school opened its new playing fields at Thames Ditton, alongside which was built its boathouse, donated by [[R. C. Sherriff|R.C Sherriff]].

The school celebrated the opening of the newly finished Queen Elizabeth the Second building (a.k.a. the QEII Building) with a visit from [[Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom|Queen Elizabeth II]] in 200x, where she unveiled a plaque and met with a small class of students.


==Houses==
The school honours its rich history through the naming of its four [[House system|houses]] after Queen Elizabeth (Queens house), William Walworth (Walworth house), Richard Taverner (Taverner house) and Edward Lovekyn (Lovekyn house). It also celebrates the school's founders once a year with a day of Commemoration in March.
There are five [[House system|houses]], named after [[Medieval]] and [[Elizabethan]] figures connected with the school and the city of London, with the exception of [[Stanley Shoveller]], an Old Kingstonian who played international hockey in the early 20th century.

Kingston Grammar School is a private co-educational day school in Kingston upon Thames, England. The school was founded by royal charter in 1561 but can trace its roots back to at least the 13th century.[2] It is a registered charity under English law.[3] It was a boys' school from its foundation until 1978, when the first girls were admitted.

In 2018, the GCSE results recorded 85% of grades were A*/A or 9–7, and at A-level 62.7% of all grades were A or A*.[4] In 2008, the Good Schools Guide described the school as "An academic school with a modern edge".[5]

History

[edit]
the Lovekyn Chapel
Lovekyn Chapel

The school's history is traceable into the Middle Ages, where there are references to schoolmasters like Gilbert de Southwell in 1272, described as "Rector of the Schools in Kingston", and to Hugh de Kyngeston in 1364 "who presides over the Public School there". Notable in the school's history are the founding and endowing of the Lovekyn Chapel by John and then Edward Lovekyn in 1309–1352 and later by William Walworth in 1371. The chapel is still used by the school.[6]

After the dissolution of the chantries in 1547, the chapel fell to the Crown and was deconsecrated. It, and by now its substantial related endowments, fell to a court favourite, Richard Taverner. He preserved the chapel so when in 1561 the bailiffs of Kingston petitioned Queen Elizabeth I for a royal grammar school, the building was still usable. The Queen granted the school a royal charter in 1561.[2]

The school became a direct grant grammar school in 1946[7] as a result of the Education Act 1944 and became independent in 1978 after the scheme was abolished by the 1974–79 Labour Government.[8] In the same year, the first girls were admitted.

KGS celebrated the four hundredth anniversary of its founding charter in 1961 with a visit from Queen Elizabeth II. In 2005, she opened the new Queen Elizabeth II Building, where she unveiled a plaque, met with students of Music and Geography and watched an excerpt of the play "Smike" after which the new Recording Studio was named.

On 1 May 1965, the school opened its new playing fields at Thames Ditton, alongside which was built its boathouse, donated by R.C Sherriff. Prior to this it had shared Kingston Rowing Club's boathouse, and had owned much smaller playing fields at Ditton Road, Kingston.[9]

Houses

[edit]

There are five houses, named after Medieval and Elizabethan figures connected with the school and the city of London, with the exception of Stanley Shoveller, an Old Kingstonian who played international hockey in the early 20th century.
