Wrenn School was rated ‘good’ by Ofsted in 2018 and was awarded ‘Northamptonshire School of The Year’ the same year. All staff at Wrenn share the clear vision that the child is at the heart of everything they do.

The Trust's mission is to develop the full academic, personal and social potential of each individual student. We have high expectations of our students and are an inclusive community that welcomes students from all backgrounds. At the heart of our ethos is the aim to instil in students self-esteem, self-respect and confidence.
