The Walsingham School was a secondary school located in the St Paul's Cray area of the London Borough of Bromley, England.

The school originally operated as two separate schools: Midfield Secondary Boys School(MSBS as per the school blazer logo) at the South end of the site, and Midfield Secondary Girls School at the North end.

The two schools were merged into a single co-educational comprehensive school in September 1974. Though the school was renamed to Walsingham School For Boys during the tenure of Head Teacher Mr Wakefield; Roger Wilkinson took over as head teacher after the school merged and became a coeducational comprehensive for boys and girls.

The original head teacher in the girls school was Mrs Shaw. Mrs Wheeler took over until she retired in 1974. The school closed on 31 August 1990 and the school buildings were demolished.

Following the partialdemolition of the school buildings, the land was used for housing. The old boys school gymnasium, school hall and music block remained and were used by community groups including Bromley Valley Gymnastic Centre.
