About Wootton Park School
Our Journey...
WPS opened in 2016 with two Reception and four Year 7 classes.
In September 2022, we had our first Year 6 cohort, so are now operational in every year group. In 2020 we moved into our brand new £20 million state-of-the-art school building, allowing our primary children to learn in state of the art science labs, food room and sports hall. As an all-though school, our primary children benefit from subject specialist teaching in Spanish, PE, art and technology.
WPS offers its learners a first-rate and unique learning environment, ensuring high levels of academic achievement and personal development for all, while promoting the value of public service and building a stronger society. As an all-through (4-19) school, we believe this brings a significant number of benefits to learners and staff, and we seek staff who share this vision with us.
What we can offer you...
As you can imagine, WPS is at an exciting stage of its journey. With school growth, there is an exponential amount of potential to develop responsibilities and grow your career by shaping policy, launching initiatives and contributing to the school's desire to achieve excellence.
Our school coaching policy promotes a supportive and encouraging work environment to all staff in achieving their own goals and professional development.
Staff achievements are openly acknowledged and encouraged.

What we do outlives us. We button our shirts, clip our ties, and tighten the fit of our blazer. Immediately we are instilled with a brimming sense of pride and opportunity every time we adorn ourselves with the elegant blends of blue and gold. We take a few steps, a cycle, a drive, and arrive directly at the heart of excellence. A foundation for growth, a centre of achievement, the discovery of opportunities. We are recognised as individuals, each with our own unique potential, inspired by the outstanding teaching delivered to us each and every day. Empowered by the support and commitment of every teacher, and the respect and care from our peers, we come together as a community to create a better society and a brighter future. Here, at Wootton Park School, we are one big family and we truly believe that what we do outlives us all.
