Welcome to King's Academy Prospect
A Message from Our Leadership Team
Welcome to King's Academy Prospect. As leaders of this exceptional school, our goal is to help every student thrive.
David Littlemore, Executive Headteacher
As Executive Headteacher, I split my time between here and King's Academy Easthampstead Park in Bracknell. I'm proud to be leading both schools on rapid and sustained improvement journeys, ensuring they are the first-choice schools for our local communities. Since joining King's Group Academies in 2020, I've seen firsthand how our core values of Honesty, Faith, and Courage shape everything we do. I believe a school is more than a place of learning—it’s a vibrant community. I'm incredibly proud of our diversity, with students from over 40 different countries, and our commitment to helping young people become the next generation who will, in turn, help others. When I'm not at school, I enjoy supporting my own teenage children and cheering on my favourite football team, Bolton Wanderers.
Mary Morris, Head of School
As Head of School, I lead the day-to-day operations and strategic direction of King's Academy Prospect. I am deeply passionate about inclusive education and am a huge advocate for our students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). My primary focus is the safety and well-being of our students. As the school's Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), I'm immensely proud of our commitment to keeping every student safe in an increasingly challenging world. This is a commitment I extend beyond our school gates, working with the safeguarding team at Reading Festival each year to help keep young visitors safe. As a parent to two boys, I know how important it is for children to feel secure. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to current affairs podcasts while out running with my very big dog.
Our dedication to our students has been praised by Ofsted for "Outstanding" leadership, and we were proudly named "School of the Year" 2024 at the Pride of Reading Awards. Together, we are committed to providing an environment where every student not only achieves academic excellence but also genuinely enjoys their time at King's Academy Prospect.
HONESTY - FAITH - COURAGE
