School Atlas lists 76 state primary schools, 20 state secondary schools, 2 all-through schools, 5 special schools, 2 alternative provision schools and 3 post-16 schools and colleges in Medway. It also lists 9 independent schools and 91 nurseries and other early-years settings.
Of the state primary, secondary and all-through schools, 19 have a religious character: 10 Church of England and 9 Roman Catholic.
Of the 98 state primary, secondary and all-through schools in Medway, 51 hold an Ofsted overall-effectiveness grade from their last graded inspection: 3 Outstanding and 48 Good.
Ofsted stopped giving state schools a single overall grade in September 2024. Since November 2025 its report cards grade each area separately; 9 of these schools have had one.
Medway doesn't publish catchment boundaries, so there’s no boundary map to check. Distance usually decides a place.
We also hold last-distance-offered records for 55 schools. That distance is not always a cut-off: at a school with places to spare it is simply the furthest applicant.
