History

The Skinners’ Company, out of funds provided by the Sir Andrew Judd Foundation, founded the Sir Andrew Judd's Commercial School in 1888 in East Street, Tonbridge.  The school moved to its present site in 1896 and became known as The Judd School in 1925. Under the 1944 Education Act the School became the first Voluntary- Aided Grammar School.  Today it still has close links with the Skinners’ Company whose members make up a significant proportion of the Governing Body.

The Judd School is a selective Voluntary-Aided Grammar School with approximately 900 boys in Years 7-11.  There are around 500 students in the Sixth Form, which includes around 150 girls on average.  A key enriching facet of the school is its openness to children from all parts of West Kent and beyond.  Admissions are based on ranked 11+ score, with 157 places for 'Inner' area students and 23 for 'Outer' area (see website for further details).
