Senior Management Team

Our Director of Admissions and Marketing, Kate Rippin, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to King’s Schools, Taunton.

Having graduated from the Italia Conti Academy of Performing Arts in London, Kate gained her Equity Card and spent a number of years working in musical theatre and media arts.

Following this career, Kate took a more corporate path, working as an Executive Personal Assistant across a number of sales and marketing roles in London. Relocation to the South West saw a move into the education sector and more specifically independent schools, whilst raising her three children, Olivia, Megan and Isaac; who is currently completing his final year of Sixth Form at King’s College.

Kate joined King’s College as Registrar in 2014 and became Director of Admissions and Marketing across both schools in 2017.

Kate relaxes away from work through her continued passion for theatre and dance whilst spending time with her family and 2 dogs.
