Heirs of the past,
Children of the present,
Makers of the future.

Steve Begoo, Christian Concern
"This is such an amazing new school. I've been to visit a couple of times now, and I am so impressed as a teacher and as a former school principal. They are keeping the fees incredibly low as well. Your children will be known, loved, nurtured and supported in their fledgling Christian faith if you send them to King Alfred's."
John Platt, Parent
"The King Alfred School is a lovely school. Our daughter goes there and she is thriving. She has come on so much these past few months in confidence, numeracy, literacy etc and she is so happy at the school. It's a very welcoming place and the staff are all very skilled and deliver a high quality classical Christian curriculum."
Adrian Lowe, Grandparent
"My grandchildren attend this school. Their progress has been remarkable since starting. My initial impression is that this is a school that cares about the individuals, it’s as much about growing people as it is about academic achievement. Don’t let the Christian tag put you off. Congratulations to the team who teach!"
David Hardway, Parent
"The King Alfred School is excellent. Using a Classical Christian curriculum, the school does not only nurture the child's mind but also the child's heart. And the school does both very well. Our daughters, though still young, are more disciplined and considerate than when they started at the school. And both are enjoying and excelling in their reading, writing, maths, and more."

The King Alfred School at a Glance

The King Alfred School is a private, classical, Christian school located in Dudley, West Midlands. Our goal is to provide our students with a classical education of the highest quality and to create a private school which is a model of excellence in both academics and Christian character.

The King Alfred School is the flagship school for classical education in the UK and is the founding member and model school for the Classical British Education network. We are also proud members of the Classical Latin School Association.

We currently have one campus in Dudley, we plan to move to a larger campus in Stourbridge to meet growing demand and an expanding age range offering. Our school currently caters for children aged 3-13 and will soon provide an education up to age 16. There is always something exciting happening within the community from plays and music performances, balls, knowledge recitals, sports coaching and much more.
