King Edward's School Parent Reviews



Average Parent Rating


“Our son thrives at KES”


My son is in senior school and thriving at KES. It is a very academic school, students are challenged to exceed their own expectations of themselves. Teachers and staff are full of energy and enthusiasm. I find there is good correspondence between the school and parents. If entering at year 7 there is some separation between those coming from other schools and those who were in the pre-prep but this goes away within the year.
