The school was founded in 2014.

In September 2017, Kingsworth started to offer the High School Diploma to students from Grade 11 upwards. The High School Diploma is a baccalaureate programme. It is an alternative to the A-level program for students who are not yet ready to choose one specific area of study.

Campuses
The school is based over two campuses. The bilingual Primary School is located at rue Copernic in the 16th arrondissement and the Secondary School is located at rue de Passy also in the 16th arrondissement.

Curriculum
Learning at the secondary school level is divided into three ‘Key Stages’. Key Stage 3 is a three-year course in which students are taught a broad curriculum with an emphasis on exploration and investigative learning. Students go on to study IGCSE courses throughout their two year Key Stage 4. Finally, Key Stage 5 is a two year course in which students have the choice of whether to complete a High School Diploma or A Levels.

The programme is broadly based on the English National Curriculum.
