Information about the school

We are an 11-18 school located in the beautiful village of Meopham, taking students from the surrounding villages and also from Gravesend, which is close by via public transport. We are very proud to be able to offer these young people a dynamic and forward-thinking school that embraces modernity, whilst also providing the tranquility and natural beauty of a traditional village setting. We believe that all young people - regardless of background - should be able to benefit from an education in such a setting.

As part of Swale Academies Trust, we benefit from a collaborative network of nine secondary schools in Kent and East Sussex, and as such, there are a range of professional development and further career progression opportunities available, including the full range of National Professional Qualifications.

We’re a supportive, friendly, approachable team who all work together because we all believe in the same thing: that our job, as educators, is to make the world - and its future - a better place. If you believe in the same thing too, then we warmly welcome you to come and take a look at what our school has to offer.
