We want every student to leave WFS with confidence and a belief that learning is a positive, lifelong experience. We want every student, through involvement in a rich range of experiences and challenges, to develop high self esteem and make a valuable contribution to society.
A vast array of extension and enrichment activities, at home and abroad, help our students to develop their passions, gain new experiences and further their understanding of themselves and the world.
We offer extensive opportunities for residential courses, day trips and field trips including foreign and cultural visits. In addition to this we are proud of our Book Week and themed days, as well as offering a wide range of sporting, musical and dramatic activities. Many faculties run clubs and we also run a comprehensive programme of ‘out of hours’ learning opportunities including extra preparation for examinations called ‘Raising the Game’, Masterclasses and Summer School. Students also participate in fund raising activities for local and national charitable organisations.
