**About Wetherby High School**

Wetherby High School is a mixed, non-denominational foundation school and for students aged 11-16. The school is located in the heart of Wetherby, in a semi-rural area of north Leeds. The school is a growing school, with almost 640 students on roll.

The former secondary modern school was built on its current site in 1966, and became a foundation school in 2010. The school falls under the remit of Leeds City Council.

Wetherby High School is an inclusive school, deeply committed to ensuring the educational experience for each child unlocks their full potential. As such our ambitions for them stretch way beyond their exam results and their time with us. We adopt a relationship and restorative approach to school improvement, striving for all staff and children to feel they are connected to and belong to the school community. It is through these relationships that we can work _with_ each other to provide high challenge and high support to staff and students.

We are delighted that the school will soon have a new state of the art building for the school community to enjoy.

**Values and Vision**

Wetherby High School has four key values, which aim to ensure every child can reach the best possible outcomes:
“**Know our children well**”

We believe that strong relationships, between the staff and the students and between the students themselves, lead to great learning. These relationships create the distinctive, close-knit family feeling of our school community. Knowing students as individuals - both in terms of their learning and personal development - means we can better challenge and support them to reach their full potential.

“**Partners in learning**”

Our students know that as a school community, as a year group and as a class group, we are responsible for the progress and development of each other. We should challenge and support each other to be the best version of ourselves. This partnership extends to home. We know students benefit when there is open and frequent communication between school and home; it is a key relationship.

“**Enjoy and aspire**”

School should be a happy and enjoyable time for our students; a safe learning environment where all students can grow and develop. We are committed to providing a wide-range of enrichment opportunities so all students can find their passion. Our Flexible Learning Programme, House activities, careers events and trips develop character, identity and a sense of achievement at such a crucial time in their lives.

“**Character for achievement**”

We know that to achieve well in the rigorous exams based education system, students need to be equipped with the independence, determination and resilience to overcome any challenges they may face. When our students move on from Wetherby High School, we want them to leave not only with the best academic results, but also the character to be successful young adults in a modern world. Additionally, a sense civic responsibility, emotional intelligence, self-regulation and empathy are traits that we know will help students flourish as valued members of any community they are become part of.
