WVC specialises in providing for students who have been permanently excluded from mainstream school or who have met the threshold for a permanent exclusion.
We work closely with our Mainstream School partners to support early intervention so as to avoid students being permanently excluded and to therefore to try and avoid the stigma of this when they leave school.
Many of our students have social, emotional and mental health difficulties (SEMH), although there are students who may also have more complex needs. Our staff ratio is high at all Key Stages to ensure that students receive excellent academic and pastoral support. WVC is currently part of a Federation of schools which are in the process of converting to MAT under the Inclusive Education Trust (IET)

The three schools in the Federation all currently have an Outstanding judgement form Ofsted and pride themselves in always being child centered with all strategic decisions only made if it will in some way benefit the young people of Surrey.
