Thank you for your interest in The Howard School at what I think is a very exciting time to be part of the school’s community. As part of The Howard Academy Trust, we are committed to a shared moral purpose; to make a positive difference to the lives of the young people in our community.
The Howard School is a highly inclusive school community where every individual matters. High levels of discipline ensure everyone is expected to work hard and make a positive contribution to the learning environment. The school has been recognised as a Rights Respecting School at Gold Level by UNICEF, the only secondary school in Kent or Medway to receive such an award.
"Pupils enjoy school and feel valued. The school is inclusive with a real sense of community. Relationships between pupils, and between pupils and staff, are a real strength."

Great day in Ypres today. Tyne Cot cemetery visited and a wreath from 2 Howard students laid at the Menin Gate after the 8pm Last Post buglers. Respects solemnly paid. https://t.co/RFHcwG9aVl
Our year 9 students safely arrived in Ypres today on their History residential and are pictured here at the Hooge Crater Museum. Students are standing on a German trench system where the Germans stayed, on high ground, for 2 years so they could defend any attack from the allies.
Was lovely to welcome you back.
