“Each child, regardless of background, will receive a world-class education, and be nurtured, challenged and inspired to aim high”.
Our vision motivates and challenges us to become better, day by day, as we continue to strive to offer our students an exceptional education.
We opened in 2015 as an 11-19 secondary school.

We are a proud to be part of the Excalibur Academies Trust that allows us to work in close partnership with its excellent network of schools.
Students at The Wren are confident and respectful individuals, and are proud of their school and the values that we uphold.

We offer an extensive bespoke internal Professional Development programme organised with individual needs and growth at its core and believe in collaboration and supportive practice.
We are not a school that sits still. I lead a restless team, who are bold and creative in ensuring that we move this school and the educational experiences of our students and our community forward.
