“Maidstone Grammar School for Girls was founded in 1887 with Funds provided by the Wardens of Rochester Bridge. The school was opened at Albion Place in January 1888 with 18 pupils. In 1938 the present main building was opened in Great Buckland and additional buildings have since been added to meet the growing size and needs of the school. Since the 1944 Education Act the school has been a Voluntary Controlled Grammar School maintained by Kent County Council. September 1993 marked a new phase in the school’s history with a return to entry at 11+. MGGS is a friendly school, successful in lots of ways and not just in examination results.”
