Headteacher’s Message

Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,

It is with immense pleasure that I welcome you to King’s Academy Bay House and King’s Academy Bay House Sixth Form.

Our commitment is to deliver an exceptional education, driven by our bold mission: to secure ‘Opportunity and Success on a Global Stage‘ for every member of our community. We are dedicated to providing the knowledge, skills, and character development needed to thrive anywhere in the world.

This ambitious mission is built upon the foundation of our three core values: Honesty, Courage, and Faith. These values shape the ethos of happiness, success, and safety that thrives in every corner of our Academy.

Our Values in Action

  • Honesty – We prioritise behaviours that promote transparency and truthfulness, always seeking what is best for all at KABH. We debate ideas openly and are not afraid to recognise mistakes, understanding that they are essential for learning and growth. This culture of open honesty ensures everyone feels happy, successful, and safe, able to express their thoughts and ideas without fear.
  • Courage – We instil the courage needed to face challenges head-on and adapt. This means we embrace diversity and champion inclusivity, creating a truly welcoming place. We demonstrate courage by engaging fully with feedback through resilience and self-regulation, and by being happy to ask questions when we are not sure. This is how we push beyond our perceived limits.
  • Faith – We hold an unwavering belief in the difference we can all make. Faith underpins our culture of safety; we are trusting and respectful to our whole community, making it safe to share concerns and make mistakes. We encourage others through kindness to have faith in their own abilities, knowing that resilience and self-regulation will fuel their curiosity and exploration.

Securing Excellence Together

Excellence at KABH is a journey we embark on together. Our passionate educators provide a challenging and stimulating academic environment, equipping you with the personalised skills necessary to excel academically and in the world beyond these walls.

As the Headteacher, I am excited to lead this journey with you. Together, grounded in Honesty, Courage, and Faith, we continue to drive outstanding Opportunity and Success on a Global Stage for our whole community.

Warm regards,

Chris Willis – Headteacher – King’s Academy Bay House

Help Inspire the Next Generation Through Work Experience

We are looking forward to working with local employers and businesses to support our students through in-person work experience opportunities this summer.

Partnerships with businesses across our community continue to play an important role in inspiring and supporting the next generation.

Placement weeks:

📍 Lower Sixth Students – Week commencing 29 June
📍 Year 10 Students – Week commencing 6 July

If your organisation would be interested in supporting a student placement or finding out more, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please email careers@kgabayhouse.uk

Exploring Alternate Worlds Through Reading and Imagination

An alternate world is any fictional setting that isn’t our normal reality, used to tell stories that wouldn’t be possible in the real world.

And in our library lessons we have used alternate worlds to explore “what if” ideas through parallel universes, completely invented settings and dystopian futures. Not just reading, but looking closely at how these worlds are built. What’s different? What rules have changed? What still feels familiar underneath it all?

From hidden societies to completely reimagined realities, students have been great at spotting patterns and making connections. They’ve seen that even the most unusual worlds are shaped by real ideas about power, identity, and choice.

Hopefully, this carries into future creative writing, and sparks a lasting interest in alternate world fiction.
