The Kingston Institute of Tamil Culture (KITC) is a Tamil school in Tolworth, South West London.

The Institute was formed in April 1986 mainly to serve the linguistic, cultural and social needs of the Tamil community in the London Borough of Kingston upon Thames and its neighbourhood. The main aim was to teach language and culture to the children who are born here to enable them to learn and preserve the rich heritage of Tamils.

The change in needs and demand due to the increase in Tamil population made it necessary to expand its activities further to accommodate the wider community. Separate independent groups focusing in sports, fine arts and welfare services were formed to further the development of youth and to fill the gap in services for the elderly and people in need generally.
