In 2017 a new headteacher (Pete Last) replaced Simon Woolcott as headmaster of the senior school. He applied many changes to the school most prominently organizing the sale of the school to China First Capital Group[3] and starting up the earth center.[4] On 6 January 2020 Pete last surprisingly left the school with no prior warning and Gill Jackson took over as head of the senior school...

Kingsley School was formed in January 2009 from a merger of Grenville College and Edgehill College.

Grenville College was founded in 1954 as an Anglican boys' school and in 1994 merged with Stella Maris convent school (Roman Catholic), becoming co-educational. Edgehill College was founded in 1884 by the Bible Christian Church.
