Welcome to our wonderful school.

Our school is located upon an extensive site in Gosport which we share with Steady Steps pre-school and Rowner Infant School. We have gorgeous grounds which the children make full use of.

This website is a means for you, as a parent or visitor, to share in the success and efforts of all our pupils, staff, and parents. Our website will also give you information about the school and keep you informed about what is currently happening within it. Please enjoy the photographs and have a look at the online of our tour because we would love to show you around.

Our school day starts for our learners from 08.40 and the collection time is 15.05. In that time we have a morning break and a lunch break. Some of our children attend our Breakfast Club which starts at 7.30am and others attend our after-school extracurricular clubs.

Rowner Junior School became an Academy on 1 September 2018 and were part of the Gosport and Fareham Multi-academy Trust (GFM). The GFM merged with King’s Group Academies on May 1 2024 and became King’s Academy Gomer.

Chief Executive Officer, KGA Nick Cross

  • KGA is driven by a clear moral purpose. This translates into an expectation that all young people can and will achieve, but within an open, value-driven environment.
  • We will work closely with governors, senior staff and parents of schools looking to join us to ensure complete transparency in working with KGA. We expect to be able to demonstrate that all schools, whatever their circumstances, will benefit by joining the King’s family.
  • We believe to succeed we must take risks. Providing a supportive but challenging environment to staff and students is vital. However, we also hold that we are only as strong as our weakest member and so share a collective responsibility for success, as well as preventing failure. This translates particularly well to new school considerations and we welcome approaches from parents looking to establish a free school, or to support an existing school.
  • Whilst others talk about global connectivity – we live it! This represents a great deal more than connecting our schools around the world with English-speaking schools. It represents our ability to afford students the opportunity to become part of a an international community with alumni in global industries willing to share their expertise, experience and contacts. This has included head boys and head girls working together on cross-school projects.
  • We believe that the attributes of the entrepreneur are the underpinning skills necessary to quickly make an impact in any employment situation. Our focus on these 21st century skills gives our students a cutting edge when seeking employment – our students are more employable and work ready and successful.
  • As a part of our core we offer an extended curriculum ensuring our students gain a genuinely broad education that is fun and enjoyable, whilst developing their team work and resilience – our students become genuinely rounded individuals, capable of being adaptable and versatile.
