About Maundene School

Maundene School is a primary school in Chatham, Medway, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy. Around 394 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 56% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That is down 12.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 103 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 8% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Maundene School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 51 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.4%. There are about 27.5 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
