Who Owns King's College School?

King's College School is an international premium school brand developed and operated by Inspired Education Group. Inspired Education Group was founded in 2013 by Nadim Nsouli, a Lebanese-British entrepreneur with a background in private equity and education investment. Nsouli established Inspired with the vision of creating the world's leading premium private education group, and the company has grown rapidly through acquisitions and new school openings to become the world's largest premium education provider.

The King's College School brand represents Inspired's strategy of developing new premium international schools in markets with strong demand for high-quality British-curriculum education. The brand name evokes the tradition of British independent school education, with its associations of academic excellence, character development, and preparation for university and professional life.

King's College School, Cascais was opened in September 2022 in Cascais, a coastal town in the Lisbon region of Portugal. Cascais is one of Portugal's most affluent communities, located approximately 30 kilometers west of Lisbon along the Estoril Coast. The area has a significant international community, including expatriate professionals working in Lisbon's growing technology, finance, and services sectors, as well as wealthy Portuguese families and international residents attracted by Portugal's quality of life, climate, and relatively low cost of living compared to other Western European countries.

Portugal has experienced significant growth in its international school market in recent years, driven by the influx of international residents attracted by Portugal's Non-Habitual Resident (NHR) tax regime, its Golden Visa program (which has since been modified), and its reputation as a desirable destination for digital nomads, retirees, and international professionals. The demand for high-quality English-language education for the children of these international residents has created opportunities for premium international school operators like Inspired.

King's College School, Cascais offers a British curriculum education from early years through secondary school, preparing students for GCSE and A-Level qualifications. The school is designed to serve the international community in the Cascais and Lisbon region, offering a high-quality British education in a modern, purpose-built facility.

King's College School, The Bahamas is located in Nassau, the capital of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas. Nassau is a major international financial center and tourist destination, with a significant international community including expatriate professionals, wealthy international residents, and families of students attending the school. The Bahamas has a long tradition of British-influenced education, reflecting its history as a British colony and its current status as a Commonwealth nation.

King's College School, The Bahamas offers a British curriculum education with boarding options, serving both day students from the Nassau area and boarding students from across the Caribbean region and internationally. In October 2025, the school opened a new boarding house, significantly expanding its residential capacity and strengthening its position as a leading international boarding school in the Caribbean region. The addition of boarding facilities allows the school to attract students from a wider geographic area, including families from other Caribbean islands and internationally who seek a high-quality British boarding school education in a Caribbean setting.

Both King's College School locations benefit from Inspired Education Group's global network of educational resources, curriculum development expertise, and best practices in school management. Inspired's scale as the world's largest premium education provider allows it to invest in facilities, technology, and faculty development at a level that would be difficult for individual schools to achieve independently.

Inspired Education Group continues to expand the King's College School brand, with potential for additional locations in markets where there is strong demand for premium British-curriculum international education.
