Malet Lambert

Malet Lambert is built on the principles of traditional values, contemporary aspirations, and creative curiosity. The school emphasizes the importance of respect, hard work, compassion, and empathy, while fostering an ambitious environment that encourages pupils to explore the world inquisitively. It is committed to providing a broad and balanced curriculum that recognizes individual personal, social, and cognitive learning needs.

The school offers a broad and balanced curriculum that includes subjects such as Art, Business Studies, Computing, Creative iMedia, Design & Technology, Drama, English, Geography, History, Mathematics, Modern Foreign Languages, Music, Physical Education, PSHE & RSE, Religious Studies, Science, and Sociology. The academic programme is supported by a thorough transition process for Year 6 pupils and structured mentoring for Year 11 students preparing for public examinations.

The school has a history of pupils achieving excellent examination results in Year 11. Beyond academic performance, the school focuses on ensuring pupils develop the personal character, knowledge, and skills required to thrive in a modern society.

The school provides dedicated support for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and offers English as an Additional Language (EAL) provision. Pastoral support is structured through a house system, with pupils receiving close mentoring and guidance throughout their time at the school, particularly during the transition from Year 6 and when preparing for public examinations in Year 11.

Applications for places are coordinated by the Hull City Council local authority, with the school operating an equal preference system. The school’s published admission number for 2027-28 is 350, and priority is given to looked-after children, children of staff, those living within the catchment area, and siblings. In-year applications are also managed through the local authority, and the school adheres to the Hull LA Fair Access Protocol.

The school operates on a three-term academic year, with each term divided into two half-terms. The academic year typically runs from early September to mid-July, including scheduled staff training days and bank holidays. Detailed calendars for the 2025/26 and 2026/27 academic years are available for download on the school website.

The campus features a state-of-the-art sports complex, which includes multiple sports halls, a gymnasium, an activity studio, a fitness suite, and classroom teaching areas. Outdoor facilities include 3G pitches, grass pitches, and a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA), which are available for community hire through a lettings partner.

Pupils have access to a range of extracurricular activities and leadership opportunities. The Wider Pupil Leadership Team (WPLT) meets weekly to work on school projects, while pupils can also apply for roles as House Captains or senior leadership positions, such as Head Pupils and Deputy Head Pupils, to represent their peers and liaise with staff.
