"More than education you provided our child with a safe, fun and family feel place to be educated, that’s no mean feat in today’s world. They have grown in confidence, made friends, learnt to communicate with adults and become a happy well-rounded person"

Year 13 Student

Student

"I knew as soon as I completed my GCSE's and received my results that Wye was the only option for Sixth Form. Wye has always created a caring environment, ideal for these vital years, converting from childhood to adulthood. Wye is lucky enough to have a small Sixth Form, where students' individual needs are met, rather than pupils being viewed as only a collective."
