Vision and Values

At Wilmslow High School we want every one of our students to take advantage of the experiences, opportunities and choices that a great education brings.  To support them in doing so, it is important that each one of our students is able to experience meaningful learning success in the classroom (and beyond), and we take this seriously.

A powerful curriculum 

Because we believe that a great education empowers young people, we talk at Wilmslow about a powerful curriculum.

We believe our whole curriculum is powerful because:

  • It provides our students with a breadth and depth of powerful knowledge that enables them to understand the world around them and their unique voice within this
  • It empowers our students to develop their strength of character so that they can flourish in life, learning and work
  • It challenges our students to endeavour to make a positive difference to the world we live in

A whole curriculum 

Because we believe that a great education develops the whole person, we talk at Wilmslow about a whole curriculum.

We believe our curriculum is whole because:

  • It provides our students with a broad Formal Curriculum
  • It develops our students though the learning and enriching experiences of our Wider Curriculum
  • It challenges our students to be Young People of Character living each day with Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Determination and Empathy

We want our students to BE@ Wilmslow.

By this, we don’t just mean that they should ‘be at Wilmslow’.  We want them to feel that they can thrive and flourish at our school and authentically BE at Wilmslow:

  • By being proud
  • By being strong
  • By being themselves

And we work hard to achieve this for every student every day.
