At Wombourne High School we aim for excellence in all things. We believe the academically talented should strive for the very best Universities, the sportsmen and women should play for England, the Performing Artists should head for the West End, and the practically minded students should aim for the most prestigious apprenticeships. We believe all individuals are uniquely gifted and we seek to develop and enrich these talents.

We are proud of our students and visitors to the school frequently comment on their confident, friendly approach and their enjoyment of learning. Our academic standards are high and we recognise the importance of good examination results for our students’ future success. We offer an enriched, enjoyable curriculum that enables each child to develop their personal and employability skills through visits, competitions, clubs and memorable learning experiences.

We strongly believe that an outstanding education is not solely qualification orientated and therefore we seek to develop students into kind, compassionate, well rounded young people. Wombourne High School provides a supportive and happy learning environment where students are at the centre of everything that we do.

As a founder member of the Invictus Education Multi-Academy Trust, Wombourne High School is part of a carefully planned collaboration between six self-selecting, highly successful schools. Within the Trust each school retains its own separate identity, but all members are totally committed to working together to ensure that each of our students receives the best possible education. Through combining our efforts, we have extended and enriched the opportunities available in order to give our students access to the best possible outcomes in terms of both examination results and wider educational experiences.
