Information about the school

West Malling CE Primary School is a thriving, successful, one-form entry primary school set in attractive grounds on the edge of the historic town of West Malling, in one of the most beautiful parts of Kent at the edge of the North Downs. Our vision is to "let our light shine" as children and adults.

Our school is small with a caring, friendly environment, where it is possible to know all our children and their families. We have high expectations within a supportive and positive community where every child genuinely does matter and is treated as the unique individual they are. We are fortunate to be supported by the local community of West Malling and as a Church of England school, we have strong links with St Mary's Church in the village.

The school was last inspected by OFSTED in January 2023, where it was found to be "Good" in all areas. Inspectors noted that "pupils are happy and thrive in this caring school. Children develop very positive friendships with one another". It was highlighted that we "provide a well-sequenced and ambitious curriculum" and that teachers "make effective use of their time in class".

The school is "Good" under the SIAMS framework (Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools, March 2022) which found "the Christian vision is woven through school life so that the community actively embrace inclusion and flourishing. As a result, pupils express their thoughts and act with certainty".

We are proud to be a member of the Tenax Schools Trust.

We are ambitious and aim to maximise the potential of all our children and staff.
