Welcome to The Howard School
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.
High Standards lead to High Achievement
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.
A "Good" School
"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."

Today in History: A Powerful Tribute by 8H1! We're so proud of the amazing students in 8H1, who have created stunning Holocaust memorial artwork to be displayed in libraries across Medway! Their projects include: Holocaust Flames – A symbol of remembrance. A Painting of Hope – Spreading a message of resilience. Candles of Hope – Lighting the way for a brighter future. These thoughtful creations honour the past while inspiring us to build a world full of kindness, unity, and hope. If you're near a library in Medway, be sure to check out their incredible work and take a moment to reflect. Let's all keep the flame of remembrance alive!
Big News! We're over the moon to share that TWO of our amazing Year 12 students have secured a spot on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Japan! This highly sought-after exchange was open to students across all schools in Medway, and out of just four places available, two went to OUR school! This incredible programme gives them the chance to explore Japanese culture, make unforgettable memories, and represent our school on the international stage.
