History
The co-educational Maltby Grammar School (MGS) was established in 1931, being built on the site of Rolleston Hall on Rotherham Road (A631). It was officially opened on (Saturday) 16 April 1932 by Sir Percy Jackson, the Chairman of the West Riding Education Committee. The Maltby Hall Secondary Modern School was on Braithwell Road.
Comprehensive

It became Maltby Comprehensive School, being officially opened on 7 October 1967 by Alan Bullock, the Master of St Catherine's College, Oxford and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford.

The first and only Headmaster of Maltby Grammar School was Gerald Rush, who retired when it became Maltby Comprehensive School.
