About the new school

A British education in an international setting

In August 2018, King’s College Frankfurt will open its doors, becoming the first English Curriculum School in the city.The school is located in the northern residential town of Friedrichsdorf, approximately 20 kilometres from the city centre and occupies two four-floor buildings.It will be equipped with an array of both indoor and outdoor facilities aimed to ensure that pupils can benefit from everything that the British system has to offer. Some of these facilities include: an outdoor playground area, a dining room, a sports field, science laboratories, a music room and a library.Nicholas Fry, King’s Group vice chairman said, “We are very proud to announce the opening of King's College Frankfurt in August 2018. It has long been an objective of our Group to establish a quality British school in Germany and we cannot think of a better place to begin than Frankfurt.”On opening the school will initially offer places to children from age three (Nursery) to age 9 (Year 5) but year groups will open as these children rise through the school until the school caters up to age 18 (Year 13).There will be ten native British teachers in the first years, expanding to approximately 60 when the school reaches full capacity.The school will follow the English National Curriculum, with a wide range of subjects available, leading to IGCSE and A Level examinations.Students at King’s College Frankfurt will receive exactly the same curriculum as if they were studying at one of the best schools in the UK and will learn from native British and British trained teachers.Like its sister schools in King’s Group, the school in Frankfurt will strive for educational excellence both inside and outside of the classroom.
