In March 2015 the school was given grade 1 by Ofsted, meaning 'Outstanding'. A new head, Mike O'Sullivan was appointed Easter 2007, replacing the longstanding former head Ted Rowley. John Bramston School became Maltings Academy in September 2008. A new Principal, Mr John Szynal was appointed in the spring term of 2010. The Academy is now in a new £26 million purpose built building that was constructed by Carillion (Completed summer 2011).
