Kingsbury School is a comprehensive school in the village of Kingsbury, Warwickshire, England. Its main catchment area is Kingsbury, but students also attend from a number of neighbouring villages, such as Hurley and Whitacre Heath, Picadilly, Wood End, Bodymoor Heath and Middleton.

The school occupies a fairly central part of the village, and a school has existed on this site in some form for around 300 years. The present comprehensive school was built in 1956, and currently caters for around 610 students, whose ages range from 11 to 16. It is a specialist mathematics and science college.

In addition, there is a swimming pool, which is open to the public during evenings, weekends and holidays. The pool, built in 1972 by Kingsbury Parish Council has been managed by Warwickshire County Council since it was first opened.[1] In February 2009 the future of the pool was placed in doubt after Warwickshire County Council announced their intention to withdraw funding at the end of the 2009/10 financial year.[1] However, following a local campaign to save the pool, the Council agreed to continue funding for a further year while a plan for the long term future of the pool is sought.[2]
