Results

The Department for Education's GCSE measures do not count IGCSEs, which many independent schools take instead of GCSEs, so the Attainment 8 and English and maths figures it publishes for Kings London can understate its results. We do not rank or compare them; ask the school for its own GCSE and IGCSE results.

The nearest other independent schools to Kings London are St Christophers The Hall School (1 mile); Sydenham & Dulwich Girls GDST (1.8 miles, selective); St David's Prep (1.8 miles, selective); and Trinity School (2.5 miles).
