Weald of Kent Grammar School
Tonbridge, Kent, South East · TN9 2JP
A selective girls' grammar in Tonbridge, Weald of Kent stands out for results that sit well above the national picture.

With roughly 1,902 girls on roll against a capacity of 2,475, the school is large but not full, which can ease some of the pressure familiar at heavily oversubscribed grammars.
