Schools in West Malling
At the foot of the North Downs in Kent's Tonbridge and Malling district, West Malling is a compact market town of around 2,600 people, historically known as Town Malling from Old English roots meaning 'Mealla's people'. Leybourne Chase and Ryarsh lie to the east.
West Malling station on the Chatham Main Line provides trains to London Victoria in around fifty minutes. Kings Hill, built on a former Royal Air Force airfield, is among the most sought-after addresses for school catchments in the district, while East Malling has long been a school-competitive corner of the area for primary places.
