The Wensleydale School and Sixth Form is here for one reason: to help all of our students realise their dreams.
To do this, we make sure that our young people feel part of our safe and caring community and challenge them to grasp every opportunity that their education offers.

At Wensleydale there are tangible outcomes to show that we are setting our standards high. Ofsted has praised the work that we do. Our exam results are on a very positive trajectory and exceed the national average, and we regularly compete and excel against schools much bigger than ourselves.
