Co-Educational Proposal

Latest update on our co-educational proposal is the proposal and business cases for the three schools is with the DfE pending a decision in the next few months. We will keep you informed when we have any news or updates to share.

Please find attached a letter outlining two consultations on our admission arrangements for September 2025. 

We have now started a six-week consultation on Friday 1st December 2023 and ending on Friday 12th January 2024 for Chatham Grammar admissions. The proposal is for Chatham Grammar to move to co-educational from September 2025. 

There are two separate consultations being run concurrently, linked to this proposal: 

Consultation 1: Chatham Grammar to become a co-educational 11-18 establishment from September 2025. This consultation is a key part of our application to the Department for Education to make what is termed a “significant change” to the academy – that is, allowing boys to be admitted to the academy. 

Consultation 2: Chatham Grammar to amend its admissions arrangements, to admit boys into Year 7 from September 2025. 

We would like to invite you to share your views on both consultations, details of how to share your views can be found in the attached letter.
