The King David School located in Liverpool, England is a popular specialist humanities college mixed voluntary aided Jewish Orthodox secondary school.[1]

In 2004, King David combined its Sixth Form with two other local schools – Childwall, and Broadgreen International School. This means that pupils at King David can choose options available at these schools, and attend lessons in the respective school while still being a pupil at King David, and using it as their study base. Also known as a collaboration

It has a friendly communal spirit, and is known to attain good results in all levels of education. It gives a distinctly Jewish education and is important to the Jewish community in Liverpool, though it also admits students of other faiths.
