All education is, of necessity, presented from a philosophical point of view. The curriculum of THE KING'S School reflects the position of THE KING'S Christian School Society as set forth in the Statement of Faith. The desire of the School Board is to see a biblical philosophy determine and control all facets of every school activity, including its curriculum and methodology.

We believe that God is the Creator and the Ruler of the whole universe. Since His pronouncement over all of His creation was that it was “good,” there is no reason to separate any aspect of life into “secular” and “religious” spheres. This distinction, having made its appearance variously throughout history, has influenced man deeply, particularly since the enlightenment. It has led to the development of the so-called “scientific approach” and to fallacious separation of “politics and religion”; it has divided and segmented man’s thinking about himself, his world, and his God. Jesus Christ came to restore wholeness to man and to creation. An education that does not promote this wholeness is unacceptable.

The spurious distinction between “religious” and “secular” realms has had serious implications for education generally and curricula in particular. It has led to the division between disciplines, as well as to the rejection of Biblical principles as the foundation upon which curriculum is developed.

As a result, mention of God, of creation, of the Bible or, indeed, of any moral absolute based on the Bible is not tolerated in many public schools. Although it may well be impractical to integrate fully the teaching of, say Mathematics and English, it is certainly possible to teach these, as well as all other subjects, upon the foundation of Biblical principles. At THE KING'S School, these principles are integral to all subjects and form the basis for understanding and appreciating God’s creation.

Disappointment with the lack of clear Christian teaching in the public schools has led many parents to review the question of who has ultimate responsibility for training and educating children. Scripture clearly charges parents with the task of “bring(ing) up a child in the way that he should go” (Proverbs 22:6). THE KING'S Christian School Society not only supports this injunction but also sees itself as having a distinct role to play in assisting parents to do this. THE KING'S School is attempting to meet this challenge in a number of ways.
