About King’s College Prep School
King’s College Prep is a leading pre-prep and prep school for girls and boys aged 2-13, with around 320 pupils. Set in a beautiful rural setting surrounded by farmland, the school is only a couple of minutes' drive from the centre of Taunton.
We respect traditional values, and boarding is a strong feature that contributes to the family atmosphere within the school. Children enjoy a challenging all-round education in a progressive and stimulating environment. Each year, we have an impressive number of children who gain scholarships for academia, sport, art, drama, music and design technology, and this is assisted by the quality of our facilities.

The school benefits from an Arts Centre with tiered seating; specialist design technology and art rooms; fully equipped science facilities; ten tennis courts (including six astro courts); specialist libraries in both prep and pre-prep; individual music practice rooms; a dedicated Sports Hall; a heated outdoor swimming pool; an IT suite equipped with 50 networked computers and interactive whiteboards; and 50 acres of sports fields and woodland.
