History

In May 2023, the school received a rating of "good" from Ofsted, maintaining its rating of "Good" from the previous short-inspection in 2022. The report concluded that "Pupils are happy and considerate at Kings Heath..." and "Leaders have constructed a broad and ambitious curriculum. This has inspired subject leaders to skilfully design subject curriculums."
In July 2023, following consultation, the school announced the decision to become a co-educational school beginning in September 2024. Improvement works were completed in September 2023 to add the necessary facilities to welcome girls into the school and enhance facilities across the board.
Kings Heath Secondary is a Trauma Informed Attachment Aware School and has been awarded the Silver TIAAS certification.
