About the school
“Cranbrook School, nestled in the heart of Kent, has a rich history dating back to the 16th century. Founded in 1518 by John Blubery and six other members of Cranbrook Parish, the school was established as a grammar school for boys, reflecting the early Tudor commitment to education.”
Established school - open since before 2011. Became an academy in December 2011, continuing the school that was already there.
