Headteacher's Welcome

Wakefield City High is a Leading Edge Lead school; specialist maths and computing college; High Performing Specialist School; Consultant School for the SSAT and a founder member of Tribal's Inspirational Schools programme.

Two consecutive Outstanding Ofsted reports [We remain the only Wakefield LA High School to have achieved this feat] highlighted that students excel in all areas of school life.

Academic results continue to rise well above national averages and Progress measures place the school amongst the top 4% of all schools nationally.

Central to our high standards are:

  • Outstanding teaching
  • High rates of student participation and engagement in lessons
  • Good behaviour and hard work
  • The positive 'can do' culture of staff and students, supported by a caring ethos
  • In this school each person matters

We seek to promote a genuine partnership between home and school, based on mutual trust and respect and operate an 'open door' policy in which parents and the community are always welcome.

 

I hope you find the website informative but please do contact us should you require further information.
