Welcome to Wren Academy Wren Academy’s first year has been an exciting and rewarding journey. I believe that our inaugural Year 7 have been given an unrivalled educational experience. Our students have been set challenging targets and have risen to them, developing as learners and growing in their confidence and social skills. Wren students are making outstanding academic progress and every opportunity is taken to give young people responsibility and build their confidence. I have also been delighted by the development of Wren’s staff team during our first year. The commitment from staff and quality of teaching across the Academy are exceptional. Expectations of all students are extremely high and lessons at Wren are exciting, dynamic, challenging and frequently fun. Students have thrived in our new buildings, enjoying the innovative and well equipped learning environment. Wren is one of the best resourced schools I have ever seen. All building work on the Academy site will be completed by the Spring of 2010, by which time we will have a suite of superb twenty first century buildings. I understand how important selecting a secondary school is for parents and their children. The Wren Academy team are absolutely committed to making your child welcome and happy here and ensuring they achieve the very best of which they are capable.
