La escuela Malton tiene una historia que se remonta al final del reinado de Enrique VIII. Su documento fundacional aún existe y se conserva en los archivos del Instituto Borthwick para Archivos en York.

Malton Grammar School fue una de las tres escuelas de gramática fundadas en 1547 por el arzobispo de York, Robert Holgate . Las otras dos fueron Archbishop Holgate's School en York y Holgate School en Barnsley. Estuvo ubicada en Old Malton hasta 1904, cuando cerró temporalmente, reabriendo en 1911 en nuevos edificios en Middlecave Road como una escuela de gramática mixta. Estos edificios de 1911 fueron diseñados por el arquitecto Walter Brierley y aún se utilizan, conocidos actualmente como el Ala Este de la escuela. El primer director fue Ernest Loraine Watt, quien ocupó el cargo hasta 1938, cuando Thomas Arthur Williams lo sucedió tras su fallecimiento. El tercer director fue Philip Taylor, de 1951 a 1971.

La escuela Malton County Modern School se construyó en un terreno adyacente a la escuela de gramática en 1959. George Hanson fue su único director durante sus 12 años de existencia.

The County Modern and Grammar School merged in 1971 to become Malton School, a comprehensive school. Philip Taylor was nominated as Head, but died within a few weeks of the school opening. John Gresswell, who had been appointed as deputy for the school's opening, became head, from 1971 to 1989. The fifth headteacher was David Roberts, whose time in office ran from 1989 to 2006. He was succeeded by the current head, Robert Williams.

The school was awarded specialist science status in 2004, with four new science laboratories built as part of the status. A £2.4 million community sports hall was opened on the school site by the Archbishop of York, John Sentamu, in February 2011. Usage is shared between the school during the day and the community in the evening.^[2]

In May 2011 the school's governing body proposed to convert to an academy – and subsequently to pursue conversion to a faith based school, re-establishing a link with the Church of England broken in 1911.^[3]

The school received a good rating in its 2023 Ofsted Inspection report.^[1]
