A rich history With strong values

Founded in 1595, Wellingborough School prides itself on its rich history and enduring traditions. These are visible today in our architecture, our house system and, most importantly, our values. Our mindset, however, is thoroughly progressive and we are keen to embrace innovations which make our pupils the ethos and integrity of our School.

Families are reassured by our longevity and the body of knowledge we have developed over time about how best to educate boys and girls. At a time of fleeting fashions, even in education, it is more important than ever to be led by our long-held values.
