The Charles Dickens School is a mixed high school and sixth form, located in Broadstairs in the English county of Kent.[1] The school is named after Charles Dickens, the 19th century writer and social critic.

It is a foundation school administered by Kent County Council, which coordinates admissions to the school. The Charles Dickens School has a non-selective intake, but does have specialisms in mathematics and computing. As part of this the school participates in the Faulkes Telescope Project.

The Charles Dickens School offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A Levels, and further BTECs. Some sixth form courses are offered in conjunction with St George's CofE School.[2]
