Welcome to The Wellington Academy
The Wellington Academy is a very special place: founded by the prestigious Wellington College and named after one of our greatest military leaders, we are proud to offer a warm, inclusive and ambitious education for every student. As a member of the Ascend Learning Trust, we are part of a wider community that fosters a deep sense of belonging as well as the highest academic standards.
We believe education should inspire. That's why we offer a broad and balanced curriculum that nurtures academic success and creativity whilst developing core personal attributes such as independence, curiosity and courage; attributes that we believe are integral in equipping our students to play their part in society and enable success beyond their time at our school. Alongside core subjects, students thrive through the arts, sport and leadership opportunities - supported by exceptional facilities including a theatre, dance studio, music suites, a bespoke sixth form and our newly opened Resource Base, we provide a truly world class, fully inclusive educational provision. Our students are at the heart of our school. We pride ourselves on the caring and supportive environment we offer, which enables all students to flourish. Underpinned by strong pastoral care, we greatly value our place in the wider community and actively engage in both our military and civilian partners in the local area. When your child joins us, you become part of the Wellington family. We look forward to welcoming you to performances, exhibitions, sporting events and community celebrations. We would be honoured to support your child's journey and promise to work with you every step of the way to help them grow into confident, curious and capable adults.

As a community of schools we strive to achieve this through our relentless commitment to our values of ‘ Compassion, Aspiration, Respect, Dedication and Integrity’ for all of our students, with the potential of every individual within our community valued. Welcome to Ascend Learning Trust, where we pride ourselves on our core motto: ‘Together we Belong, Believe, Become’ Welcome from Jane Coley
As a result of this ambition, we strive to ensure that students receive an incredibly high standard of academic and pastoral care to enable them to leave school with the very best platform for their future. The schools within Ascend Learning Trust are a family, and as such they support each other to continuously improve, providing strength to each other. As a mother of 3 school age children at both primary and secondary level, I know how important young people's school experience is and it is a privilege to lead an organisation whose purpose it is to support this. As CEO of Ascend Learning Trust I am fully committed, along with all of our staff to ensuring that your child's education is the very best that it can be.
