At Wembley we nurture enthusiasm, energy, curiosity, and fun in the classroom and on the sports field. We inspire our scholars to learn to think for themselves, grow, create, and flourish in a co-educational family environment. Our experienced team of teachers have the best interest of each scholar at heart, and we communicate on a regular basis with the parents of scholars in the phase. We emphasize character building and caring for each other in a Christian environment.

WELLNESS PROGRAMME
An onsite Educational Psychologist is available. EQ sessions are offered to scholars and staff.
ACADEMICS
Educate. Nurtrure. Inspire.
We keep abreast of the latest developments in education where scholars move out of the classroom to discover, think critically, share their ideas with their friends and learn.
Extension activities are offered such as a science expo where young Wembley scientists demonstrate science experiments to scholars from other schools. We also offer Think out of the Box maths days where scholars work together to find solutions to maths problems. Our scholars took part in a one-act playwriting competition where they also perform in their own plays.
We encourage critical thinking and introduced Global Perspectives where the skills of research, analysis, evaluation, reflection, collaboration, and communication are developed.
There are between 14 and 25 children in a class.
Our scholars take part in Study Method Toolbox sessions where different learning styles are explored.
We offer academic assessment and support daily.
