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.
