What the school offers its staff
We are committed to providing our staff with the highest quality support and challenge to ensure that they have the opportunities to excel and give our students the education they deserve.
As members of staff in an ambitious school that aims to enrich the experiences of our young people, enable them to make extraordinary progress and be able to access the best opportunities for their future lives, we must be role models for continuous learning and development.
We provide:
• Training and development for all staff across the wide range of roles that we have in school – both in and outside the school.

• A supportive Professional Development system that sets realistic objectives and encourages individual growth, team success and the promotion of the Wrenn ethos through a coaching approach.

• Opportunity to reflect on career aims and feedback into further school improvement through career stage interviews.
• The opportunity to work with colleagues on improvement projects through action research, development projects, enhancing subject knowledge, co-observation and utilising external support – colleagues engaged in collaborative development so that improvement is continuous.
We have an open-door policy for senior leadership and encourage feedback from all our staff in significant areas of school improvement.
We also provide an Insights programme that allows staff at any stage in their career to gain an insight into what the next step in their career progression might look like and the training around this.
Commitment to safeguarding
We have a strong Safeguarding team at the academy and a strong culture for Safeguarding in the school. Safeguarding is fully compliant, and the wellbeing of students is a real strength of the academy. The school has been awarded Northamptonshire School of the Year for a second time in 2021 for the exceptional care and guidance provided to the students during the last year. We invest in students’ cultural capital through a very strong personal and community enrichment programme. We have strong links to our community and work closely with local partners and providers to maximise opportunities for all students.

Steeped in History, Wrenn school has been providing high quality education to the young people and families of Wellingborough for over 100 Years.
Our Upper School’s origins at London Road lie in Wellingborough County High School for Girls which was established in 1907. Our Lower School site at Doddington Road which was established in 1930, was once the Wellingborough Grammar School for boys. In 1975, under the then headmaster, Mr Harry Wrenn, the two schools merged to form Wrenn School and in 2025 we look forward to celebrating 50 years as Wrenn School.
Wrenn School is a split site school, the lower and upper school site, KS3 (Aged 11-14) are entirely based on our Doddington Road site with KS4 & 5 (14-19) predominantly based at London Road. The Educational environment is full of historical character and the school has retained many of its original features. The school has beautiful grounds, excellent Art, Music, Drama and Design Technology purpose-built facilities. The Wrenn Astro, playing fields, hard play areas and Gyms providing excellent facilities for the multitude of sports which are played across the school.
