The Willink is a mixed 11-18 community school with almost 1200 students on roll. We are the state school of choice for the local area and draw students from a wider region including Hampshire, Reading and Wokingham. Our curriculum is broad and balanced, but with a strong international flavour reflecting the school’s heritage as a Language College. Outcomes are strong; most recent examination results put the school in the top ten non-selective schools in Berkshire. We have experience and expertise in Initial Teacher Training and professional development and are a strategic partner to the Teaching School Hub Berkshire. The Willink is also the lead school for the Mobius Maths Hub – a national centre for excellence in the teaching and leadership of mathematics education, that covers much of Berkshire and Wiltshire. We are, in the round, a friendly, busy, vibrant school with high expectations and aspirations for all members of our learning community.

Our success is based on an approach which combines the highest expectations with sensitivity to learners’ individual needs, concentrates on developing and maintaining the very best standards of learning and teaching, and takes every opportunity to recognise and reward achievement. We desire all our students to “ Engage, Respect and Achieve” . We are very proud of the confident, skilled and ambitious students who leave us. These qualities are the result of the opportunities that derive from our broad curriculum and innovative approach.
