The Wisbech Academy

Academy

The Wisbech Academy is a growing secondary school in Cambridgeshire operated by the Brooke Weston Trust. Opened for its first cohort in September 2024, the Academy provides high‑quality teaching and supportive pastoral care for young people aged 11–16. With modern facilities, including bright classrooms and specialist spaces for music, drama and study, the school offers a welcoming environment where students can flourish.

The School

By combining academic ambition with strong community presence, The Wisbech Academy supports students to grow academically, socially and personally as they progress through their secondary education.

Community Facing Projects

In its first year of operation, The Wisbech Academy welcomed its first cohort of pupils and worked closely with families, local leaders and Cambridgeshire County Council to ensure students from the town can attend school locally rather than travel outside Wisbech, promoting community stability and continuity in education.

Goals

  1. To establish a supportive and aspirational secondary learning environment for young people in Wisbech.
  2. To deliver a broad and balanced curriculum that equips students with knowledge, skills and confidence for future pathways.
  3. To build strong partnerships with families, local organisations and community stakeholders.
  4. To grow the Academy sustainably so it becomes a lasting centre of learning, opportunity and civic pride in the Wisbech community.
