請問King's School Canterbury好嗎?
Kings School Canterbury no doubt is an excellent school. It is one of the oldest in the country and is very prestigious. As Kings has very strong links with the Cathedral, I think there might be more of a Christian feel than other schools. The school Governors have close relationship with Church of England.
In 2011, Kings ranked 37 but it drops to about 100 now. I think the drop in ranking is mainly due to its all-around curriculum which is different from other top notch schools to place emphasis on academic performance only. I know three Hong Kong Kings students being admitted by Cambridge said that they only spent 50% time in studies in Kings while other time engaged in sports and music. With about 800 boarders, Kings has many ECAs and students are required to join one of ECAs after school.
All my friends previously studied Kings highly recommend Kings because of its heritage, idyllic setting, pastoral care, reputation and academic excellence. One of my friends' boy even gave up the offer of elite state Cochester Royal Grammar School to study Kings Year 12.
I think Kings is of same caliber as Charterhouse, Oundle, Abingdon etc. For higher ranking schools, Tonbridge, Winchester, St Paul Boys and Westminster are also of excellent words of mouth.
