We are fortunate to enjoy a large site on the edge of Malton with views of both the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Wolds. The sports field accommodates three hockey, four football, one rugby pitch, one cricket pitch and an athletics track as well as hard court tennis courts / netball courts. Staff can use our sports facilities in the excellent sports centre. There is plenty of parking space for staff. Malton School was founded in 1547, becoming a comprehensive school in 1971 with the merger of the original grammar school and the neighbouring county modern. The two buildings, known as East and West Wings, date from 1911 and 1958. As far as possible, subject departments are housed in one wing. Most members of staff are based permanently in one room. We opened a new Science block with four new laboratories in 2004 on becoming a specialist Science School, resulting in a total of eight laboratories and associated preparation rooms. Our Food Technology rooms were totally re-furbished in 2011. In February 2011 Archbishop Sentamu opened a community sports centre and full-sized, floodlit, astroturf pitch on the school site, providing us with the best P.E. facilities in the area. A dance and drama studio was opened in September 2013. Fully refurbished DT rooms opened in September 2016. A new 4 classroom Humanities block was opened in September 2021.
