About Brookfield Junior School

Brookfield Junior School is a state primary in Tonbridge and Malling that parents seem to view positively, though the school does not publish a specific parent recommendation percentage in its data. What is clear from the numbers is that the school is popular enough to be operating very close to capacity — with 255 pupils on roll against a total capacity of 256. That near-full roll suggests a steady local demand, and the school’s Good rating from Ofsted, confirmed in both its 2017 graded inspection and its 2023 ungraded inspection, will give families confidence. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and serves the 7–11 age range, with a headteacher, Nathaniel South, in post. With 31% of pupils eligible for free school meals, the school draws from a reasonably diverse catchment in terms of income, and its SEND provisions are broad, covering areas from dyslexia and moderate learning difficulties to speech and language needs and autistic spectrum disorder.
