Parents and carers can generally send children to school with mild illnesses like a minor cough, runny nose, or sore throat. The NHS provides guidance to help determine if a child is well enough for school.

Valley Park is a thriving community in the heart of Maidstone, comprising approximately 1600 students in years 7 to 13. We have a specialism in the Creative and Performing Arts. Ofsted, in their visit in March 2020, noted that students 'conduct themselves with maturity' and 'work hard in their lessons, always trying their best.'
