Open Evening

The annual Open Evening for Year 5 students considering sitting the 11+ in September 2026 for entry in September 2027 and students thinking about joining the Sixth Form took place on 29 June 2026 from 18:00–20:30. 

This event is held each year to introduce the school to potential students and their families and is the only opportunity when students and all staff are available in their departments to answer questions and provide information. 

For those who are unable to attend, we have commissioned a short video about the transition from Year 6 to 7 which can be viewed here. The full admission policy for entry in September 2027 can be viewed here.

Opportunities to visit other than Open Evening are extremely limited as we are a very busy working school. We hope you would understand that our priority is to ensure that the learning of our students remains uninterrupted. However, in October 2026, we will be offering a brief tour of the school for a limited number of parents and carers of Year 5 students. This will be scheduled for one afternoon after 11+ results are released but prior to the deadline for secondary school applications in Lincolnshire (31 October 2026). Further details, including the date and time and how to register, will be published on this website closer to the time. Registration for this event is currently closed and will not open until after the main test dates in September. 

During the Open Evening, there is an opportunity to explore the school and witness first hand our commitment to providing a stimulating learning environment. Engage with our passionate teachers, who are dedicated to inspiring students and igniting their curiosity. Discover our comprehensive curriculum, designed to foster intellectual growth and prepare students for a successful future. From outstanding academic programs to a wide range of extracurricular activities, The King's School Grantham ensures that every student is offered a well-rounded education. Don't miss this opportunity to embark on an educational journey that will shape your child's future. Join us at The King's School Grantham's Open Evening and witness the possibilities.

Current students will be available to provide guided tours of the school and staff will be available in their classrooms.

Unfortunately, no parking will be available at the school site on this evening, although there are a number of public car parks nearby as well as off-street parking in the vicinity.
