Cops have combed through CCTV footage – and now know James walked into an alleyway at 12.52pm.
The teen then headed in the direction of Cuxton Woods before vanishing.
James is described as being around 5ft11 with brown hair and braces on his teeth.
He has a scar on the right-hand side of the back of his head which is similar in shape to a question mark.
James is believed to have been wearing brown tracksuit bottoms, black socks, black trainers and a grey Hollister hooded pullover.
Underneath he wore a white shirt with a light brown and blue chequered pattern.
Chief Inspector Garry Cook said: “We are continuing our search for James and have a number of specialist teams on the ground.
“We are also using expertise from partner agencies and volunteers from Kent Search and Rescue.
“Officers now know James walked along the alleyway towards Cuxton Woods and we are now seeking more sightings.
“I’d like to once again urge residents with private CCTV and drivers with dashcam to check for footage that may show him after 1pm on Saturday November 9.
“Our searches have included rural and wooded areas around the village.
“We are asking dog walkers, hikers and horse riders to continue looking out for James.
“Anyone who sees anything they think may be relevant is urged to call us urgently.”
People with information should call cops on 999, quoting reference 09-1043.
