You can learn more about King’s Maths School through our virtual open evenings and by experiencing a taster day. Our open evenings, held online in October and November, allowing us to accommodate as many people as possible.

Taster days provide an opportunity to be a King's Maths Student for a few hours. You will be taught lessons by King's Maths School teachers, in our classrooms, and experience our inspiring and unique style of teaching and learning.

Our taster days, are by invite and can be applied for as part of the main application form.
There are limited places on taster days, and priority is provided to students from under-represented groups, including:

360 virtual tour
During the COVID-19 restrictions, we were not able to host open events. We decided in response to make a film and a virtual tour showing prospective students our building. The film is complemented by videos introducing applicants to staff members, students and members of our alumni community. Please note, this film features our former Head Teacher Mr Dan Abramson OBE. We are aiming to produce a new film in 2024 featuring Mr Timothy Bateup who joined us as Head Teacher in September 2023.
A Level results 2024
The Class of 2024 attained superb A Level results, in fact our best ever. Across Maths, Further Maths & Physics A Levels, students achieved a record-breaking 77% A*, 97.6% A*-A and 99.5% A*-B grades. One student even achieved the top mark in Further Maths nationally. An incredible 38% of our leavers secured places at Oxford and Cambridge with the vast majority of other applicants going on to highly competitive universities such as Warwick, Durham, Bath and UCL.
