Contents

History

It opened as Clare Park Secondary School in 1957, designed by Read & McDermott. [2]

Present day

It is a foundation school administered by Kent County Council, who coordinate admissions to the school.

The Malling School offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils at Key Stage 4, while students in the sixth form have the option to study International Baccalaureate programmes of study, further BTECs and A-levels. [3]

It was inspected by Ofsted in March 2023 and found to be 'good' with three out of five aspects rated 'outstanding'. [4]

Description

The school is smaller than the average-sized secondary school, with a small sixth form with more boys than girls. It is a non-selective school in an area with selective schools, so the students enter the school with lower previous achievement than average. Most are White British with a below-average proportion of students are from minority ethnic groups. The proportion of students who receive support through the pupil premium is higher than average, and about a quarter of Year 7 students receive catch-up funding for students who failed to attain the nationally expected level in English or mathematics at the end of Key Stage 2. The school has a specially resourced unit, the Tydeman Centre, for 90 students who have statements of special educational needs for speech, language and communication needs. [5]
