Joining MGS in September 2021
Welcome to your new school
Class of 2028, everyone at Maidstone Grammar School is looking forward to welcoming you to our community in September.
We fully understand that the transition from primary to secondary school is a big step for students and parents and we are here to ensure that the process goes as smoothly as possible. We will provide you with a wide range of opportunities in the build-up to starting with us so that you can get to know our staff and teachers, settle into our academic and wider community and feel at home quickly at Maidstone Grammar School.
We hope that the information below will help you get prepared for your transition to us and give you a better understanding of MGS and the life of a Maidstonian. This page is regularly updated with transition tips and resources so do revisit in the build up to joining us for more updates.
We look forward to meeting you all in person in the near future and to enjoying a happy and fruitful partnership with you all over the coming years.
