The King's School Vattanacville has instruction in English.
The current City Campus is located in the central business district of Phnom Penh inside the Vattanac Capital Lifestyle Cube, situated close to the historic riverside and the Royal Palace. A second, larger campus is under construction to the south of the city within the Vattanacville urban development. This upcoming site features northern and western entrances designed to manage traffic flow smoothly during morning drop-offs and afternoon pick-ups.
The school accommodates students from ages 2 to 18, covering early development through to pre-university levels. The structure is split into Early Years for Pre-Nursery to Reception, a Prep School for Years 1 to 8, and a Senior School encompassing Years 9 to 13. Pupils progress through these stages to prepare for their external IGCSE and A-Level examinations.
The school operates as a co-educational institution welcoming both boys and girls across all year groups. While it currently functions as a day school at its central city location, the expanding campus development in Vattanacville includes dedicated on-site boarding options. These future boarding houses and staff accommodations are designed to overlook the school's sports pitches and central green spaces.
Specialized assistance is managed by an experienced Individualised Learning Teacher who designs targeted learning interventions based on each child's needs. The school also collaborates with external professionals to facilitate on-site Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and educational psychology services. Classrooms utilize differentiated tasks and tailored materials to ensure daily lessons remain accessible to pupils with varying learning profiles.
