You will study in small class sizes, typically around 15 students or fewer, ensuring a personalised learning experience. Students join us from a wide range of independent, grammar and state schools, and consistently highlight the close rapport they build with staff as one of the most valued aspects of life at WGS.
School transport offers easy access across the region, with routes from Telford, Penkridge, Walsall, Oldbury, Stourbridge and Bridgnorth, alongside free parking for students who drive. WGS is a diverse and inclusive community, guided by values of individuality, respect, equity and kindness. Students can get involved with initiatives such as our Diversity Champions, recently nominated for a national award in recognition of their work.
Our leavers often secure places at their first-choice offer from a Russell Group university. Students’ progress to a wide range of courses including Aerospace Engineering, Law, Fine Art, Medicine, History, Economics, English Language and Linguistics, and Sports Journalism.
