Why Choose KingsGate?


Have you ever wondered why parents would choose to send their children to KingsGate School?

We asked our parents why they chose us and what made us different from other schools.

Reasons to do with the school's Christian Character

At KingsGate, students are able to know the character of God through their learning – His creativity, kindness and faithfulness.

KingsGate School is prayed over – its students, families, site and teachers.


The students at our school have opportunities to:
  • Become a Christian.
  • Know themselves in a safe environment.
They are able to take risks in a safe environment.

KingsGate students receive character and spiritual education that will last them into adulthood, even more than academic education will. It is a foundation for their lives.


When students are attending KingsGate there is no split between the Christian life they lead at home and a non- Christian life at school. The school is an extension of their Christian home.

Because it is taught at home and at school, God's Truth becomes a normal thing instead of needing to be defended.
Educational Reasons

Education at KingsGate is tailored to the child, the teachers know their students.

At KingsGate, there is a high, but encouraging standard set by the Board of Trustees and the teachers.



Our integrated status means the standard of education measured is the same as at other schools. So our students can go to any high school in the country and know they are well equipped.


There is a high standard of teaching, so the students progress well.

Our students learn faster because they are happy, relaxed and safe.


All the teachers at the school are Christians.

There is a family feel, where all the students know each other.


KingsGate is relational. There is an expectation to encourage and support one another, not to just survive.

It is affordable.
