The Curriculum

We are academically ambitious for all our pupils. Our rigorous and rewarding curriculum, taught by dynamic and experienced subject specialist teachers, guides boys towards the highest levels of attainment and future success.

Games & the Arts

Sport timetabled for all, with on-site facilities (gym, spin and boxercise studios, yoga space) and use of Ealing Trailfinders. Year 7 taught a brass or string instrument, with tuition available for other instruments, plus music ensembles and a choir. Drama department produces three large-scale productions annually. Popular pupil-led newspaper created twice a term.

Pastoral Care

Wellbeing underpins all we do and, with just over 400 pupils, we are proud to know each boy as an individual. Our outstanding pastoral system is overseen by experienced staff, and includes a dedicated wellbeing team and a popular house system to support the academic, social and moral growth of our boys.

University Places

Our Class of 2023 secured over 100 offers for world-class universities across the UK and continental Europe, and more than a dozen offers for prestigious North American colleges. In just four years, Wetherby Senior sixth formers have received 50 offers to study in the USA and Canada.

Head Teacher’s Philosophy

In our relatively short history, Wetherby Senior has built a strong reputation as a forward-thinking, caring and successful community. Our boys are encouraged – academically and socially – to realise their full potential, which is reflected in the places our alumni hold at world-leading universities in the UK and overseas.

Outstanding Characteristics

An extraordinary London school, a springboard to the world. We occupy two beautiful buildings in Marylebone, with state-of-the-art facilities for science, art, music, drama, sport and more. Since our foundation, we have grown to over 400 boys, with Wetherby Senior alumni now found at top universities around the globe.
