Kingsbury School has good facilities, which despite tight financial constraints we continue to upgrade. We believe that the environment in which students work is a key consideration in their motivation, behaviour and attitude.

Sporting:
We benefit from extensive playing fields, a well equipped gymnasium, onsite swimming pool as well as use of Kingsbury Sports Hall. The school has an excellent reputation for sport and links with a number of local sports clubs, including Kingsbury Aquarius Swimming Club who make extensive use of the pool facilities.
In the early evening the site can be used for judo, fencing, boxing, table tennis, tennis and street dance. As a school our aim is to promote a competitive approach to sport whilst ensuring fairness, sportsmanship and an all round co-operative spirit in all our pupils.
Music, Art & Drama:
Increasingly we are gaining a reputation for music and drama, our facilities in these areas are therefore being gradually upgraded to reflect this aspect of pupil interest.
In 2008 we rebuilt our music facilities to include dedicated music and practice rooms. We continue to improve these facilities with the introduction of Apple Mac based music production software and recording studio. In 2009 we refurbished the Art department and purchased a kiln for pupil use.
Each October the school puts on a production, which starts as part of our transition work in primary schools (July). Increasingly therefore production facilities are also being upgraded.
Eating \ Canteen:
We believe that communal areas are an important part of school life. For this reason in 2010 our canteen facilities were re-designed by pupils and upgraded accordingly.
As a school we use cashless technology, which eliminates any concerns about access to free school meals. As a result we are also able to provide on request information to parents about the eating habits of their children.
We aim where possible to ensure that all canteen food is healthy and contributes to a balanced diet.
