A very warm welcome to

Wanstead High School

I am delighted to be the Headteacher of Wanstead High and am committed to ensuring that the school continues to build on all its phenomenal qualities, continues to go from strength to strength and provides the very best education for our young people. The aim of the website is to be a welcoming and transparent place which has high quality information to support the community, especially our parents and carers, and that is clear, comprehensive and informative.

Wanstead High has so many strengths, not least the inclusive and warm ethos, that I have experienced from day one, as well as the strong academic foundations and exam results. In a whole school review in, a Lead HMI Inspector stated that staff at Wanstead High ‘hold children’s lives in their hands and hearts’.
