Announcements:
Senior school boarding
All Year 7 boarders are accommodated in the transition house - Gowan Brae. As this houses younger boarders, the staffing structure is more intensive. In addition to the Gowan Brae Housemaster, there are nine residential tutors and a residential matron.
Senior houses have a vertical structure accommodating boys from Years 8 to 12. Each senior house is led by a residential Housemaster and assistants (at least two residential tutors and a residential matron).
Between 2011 and 2014, the senior boarding houses will be amalgamated into four. The plan is to retain a boarding enrolment at King's of about 400. During the transition period, there will be extensive rebuilding and expansion of boarding facilities on the “Left” Bank. The four houses on the “Left” Bank will gutted and renovated in turn. Boarders will be temporarily relocated to other boarding houses during these renovations. Once the renovations are completed, there will be six residential staff plus a residential matron attached to each of these expanded houses.
