Come and join us
We would be delighted to welcome you to our school to find out what makes Wellingborough education so special. Visit us at one of our Open Events or book a private tour to be shown around our grounds by one of our prefects, meet the Headmaster or Head of Prep to discuss your requirements and child’s interests.
Pupils develop notably strong self-understanding and self-belief from an early stage, meeting the schools' stated aim to encourage pupils to discover their potential and to decide who they want to be. This is because of the focus given to encouraging self-confidence by the schools' leadership and the support provided by committed staff.
