Social mobility at King’s
Empowering underrepresented students in higher education
For almost 200 years King's has been at the cutting edge of research-enhanced teaching, educating our students to become critical thinkers who can lead and change the world. King’s graduates are distinguished not just by their knowledge but by their wisdom, character, service ethic and global mindset. We strive for every King’s student to achieve their potential through world-class, inclusive, research-enhanced teaching, outstanding and accessible physical and digital learning environments and personalised student journeys.


King's Vision 2029 sets out that a King’s education is about more than achieving a good degree classification: it enables students to develop their intellectual curiosity and passion for learning and contribute to real-world social, environmental and economic impacts. By removing barriers to students' success and developing their perseverance and personal wellbeing, inclusion and respect are championed and integrated into the King's student experience as institutional and personal values. During their time at King’s, students learn how to effectively navigate their lives and careers after university, as highly employable and sought-after graduates.
