Welcome to West Malling Church of England Primary School

Our school is set in the attractive countryside village of West Malling in the heart of Kent.  It is the church school for the parish of West Malling. We provide an exceptionally high level of differentiated learning opportunities, meeting the needs of every child, including Gifted and Able and those with Learning Difficulties. We achieve this through integration, small group teaching, treating each child as unique and developing their individual strengths, whilst utilising state of the art resources, a stimulating environment and committed and talented teaching staff with high expectations of their pupils.

All classes are named after trees found in our grounds

All children in Beech and Maple classes have statements for Speech and Language. They recieve specialist support in class and integrate the main school where appropriate.
