Mayfield Grammar School, Gravesend is a selective girls’ school with boys in the sixth form which is situated in the town of Gravesend, with easy access to the A2 and M25 and a direct rail link to Charing Cross. In February 2012 we converted to Academy Status and the school celebrated its Centenary throughout 2014/15.

The school occupies two sites. One houses the original 1926 building with its distinctive quadrangle and bell tower, surrounded by its playing fields. New Science, Technology and Dining facilities opened across 2020-2021. Our second site has specially designed facilities for Technology, Sports and Drama which opened in 1995. There is IT provision on both sites and a new teaching block opened in 2021 which houses our new library, Music, multi-purpose activity studio, additional classrooms and specialist IT rooms.

The school is an 11-18 grammar school. Entry at age 11 is via the Kent 11 plus selection procedure comprising nationally standardised Verbal, Non-Verbal and Mathematics tests. The procedure allows admission of the top 25% of the ability range. An optional additional opportunity to assess eligibility for admission is available through the Mayfield testing procedure.

We are an outward looking school determined to provide the highest quality education by capitalising on opportunities available to the school. We work as a team where the contributions of all the staff are equally valued. We place major importance on providing new staff with an effective induction into the school and all staff are constantly seeking to improve their professional practice through external and internal training. Governors, parents and the community are extremely supportive of the work of the school.

The Senior Team consists of the Headteacher, a Deputy Headteacher, Senior Assistant Headteacher and six Assistant Headteachers. Curriculum Leaders lead their subject teams to ensure a high-quality teaching and learning experience for all our pupils. Pastoral care is led by an experienced team of Learning Leaders who work with Form Tutors and are supported by Pastoral Support Managers, Key Stage Co-ordinators (AHTs) and the Senior Assistant Headteacher. A House System was introduced in September 2014. Merit points are given to students during the year and the Aster Trophy is awarded to the House with the most points overall at the end of the academic year.

The curriculum follows the National Curriculum guidelines and students have the opportunity to gain ten GCSEs at the end of Year 11.

There are circa 1430 students on roll, 380 of whom are in the Sixth Form.

The school PAN is 210 for year 7 entry.

Extra-curricular activities include a full sporting programme, choirs, orchestras and other club activities. A large number of students participate in the Mayfield Challenge (Lower School) and the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme (Upper School and Sixth Form). There are Conferences, the Graduation Ball and many other opportunities for students to participate in events outside their classroom studies. The school enjoys strong links with the local business community and runs a full Careers (CEIAG) programme. The school runs an extensive programme of trips and visits both locally, nationally and internationally for all year groups.

Mayfield Grammar School is a happy community where we foster excellent relationships between staff and students.

This is a non-smoking school.
