Maltings Academy is an 11-16 co-educational Academy for 900 students. The Academy opened in September 2012 on the site of the predecessor school.

At Maltings Academy we are committed to deliver a sustained and excellent all round education and believe every student, regardless of starting point, has the right to the highest standard of education so that they can achieve their aspirations.
