“I was looking for a school with a more progressive, less traditional and more flexible philosophy regarding Albert's education. Albert had previously attended a number of the more traditional schools but had found it difficult to learn within the system they provided. The small class sizes and modern facilities enjoyed by Kings along with a clearly more modern approach to education were the keys reasons for choosing Kings”
