Background:
This over-subscribed school was founded in 1966 on a pleasant site in the market town of Wetherby on the River Wharfe. It is close to the A1 and to centres such as Harrogate, York and Leeds. The school buildings vary in age, with the newest less than 10 years old. Sport is a strong feature of the curriculum and all main team or individual games are offered. Pupils can also participate in the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. Provision for music includes a concert band, an orchestra and a wide range of instrumental teaching. A parent teacher association provides support to the school. The school has a quiet, purposeful atmosphere, but one that is happy and quite relaxed. The school aims to develop close links with all in its community.
