Bishop Wordsworth’s School is a unique school in a unique place. Pupils come to us from all types of background, united by their aptitude for an academic education. It is our privilege to foster every pupil’s ability, and equip them to excel.

The school is renowned for its strong academic tradition and outstanding results, but educational quality here goes well beyond examinations. We fuel pupils’ wider intellectual curiosity, promote artistic expression, and give opportunities for leadership and personal development. A day at Bishop’s brings genuine breadth of activity, challenge and pace, making this a stimulating environment for staff and pupils alike.

Almost all pupils stay on into the Sixth Form, where they are offered a broad academic curriculum, supported by stimulating enrichment courses. We have been teaching female students through a partnership arrangement for many years and are excited that from September 2020 BWS Sixth Form became fully co-educational with 43 girls joining our sixth form this year.
