Welcome

We’re a community school dedicated to widening the world of every single one of our students, both academically and culturally.

We are dedicated to always striving ahead and innovating, making sure that every pupil entrusted to us is equipped not only for the careers of today, but also for those that do not yet exist.

I am proud to lead a school that is at the heart of its community. Our students, families, teaching teams, support staff and wider community are all united by a shared aimto create a brighter future for Watton, for its surrounding villages, and for the people that call these places home. Our mission is clear. We put our students first, enabling success and building essential life skills.

At Wayland Academy we approach change with a clear focus on the Big IDEA. Rather than rush for quick fixes or knee-jerk responses we Innovate, Discover, Explore and Activate.

Every day at Wayland Academy is rewarding. It is an exhilarating school to lead and being able to work with our brilliant students is a great privilege and I am so proud of how they inspire others.

Glen Allott, Principal
