Congratulations ladies on your wonderful results, we wish you all the best in your very bright future!

Headmistress Mrs Huang commented:

" No doubt there will be a flurry of statistics in the press and published by schools regarding numbers of As and comparisons with previous years.  We are very pleased

with our results with 82% of our grades at A and B and 22% of our girls with straight As.

However, it's more important to remember the personal stories behind each of these results - the hard work of individual pupils, the support of parents and teachers and the doors these A levels will open into University and future careers.  As a Headmistress, it's these personal stories that mean the most to me and it's a real privilege to be part of them on a successful results day such as this."

Magnificent Mikado at KC!

On the evening of Thursday 19th June, Kent College pupils, parents and staff were treated to a fabulous Operatic performance of the Mikado raising money for the charity Future Talent. 

Led by Musical Director; Mrs Kilgour, Kent College pupils performed the japanese opera as a chorus of minstrels in beautifully coloured kimonos, accompanied by many of Mrs Kilgour's professional musical colleagues and friends.  

The acting and singing were superb with the audience drawn in to the romance and comedy of the play, Kent College pupils did very well and were able to learn a few things from the professionals!
