  4. Child’s health reasons, supported by medical evidence, which requires the child to attend this school.

  5. Children of staff at the school (where the member of staff has been employed for three years or more at the time at which the application for admission to the Academy is made and/or where the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage).

  6. Nearness of the children’s homes to the school.

School Summary

Sir Joseph Williamson’s Mathematical School (known as ‘The Math’) was founded by Sir Joseph Williamson, lord of the nearby Manor of Cobham, Kent. Today, the school is an all-boys grammar school in Rochester, Kent. Girls are admitted into the school’s sixth form.  The school became an academy in 2011.

The Math was one of the first schools in the UK to be made into a National Teaching School. It specialises in maths, computing and humanities. The school works with the other schools in the Rochester and Walderslade Consortium to extend the curriculum for sixth form students.

In recent years, around 99% of pupils gained GCSE Maths and English grade 4 with 93% gaining grade 5 in both.

  • The English test is one people of writing which lasts 50 minutes, including 10 minutes to plan.

  • The Medway Test is sat by children in year 6 at their own school if they go to a Medway school (except Kings School in Rochester) or in a Medway Test Centre if they go to schools outside of Medway.

Extended Writing standardised score x 2 + Mathematics standardised score x 2 + Verbal reasoning standardised score x 1

=  the total weighted score

All scores will be standardised.
