Writhlington School Competitors

We are a Top 10 UK University renowned for our high quality teaching and leading research into global issues, all at the heart of a vibrant city.

The world needs more than just good grades. It needs inquisitive minds, brave hearts and strong values. At Cheltenham Ladies’ College, we are here to nurture fearless individuals, ready to take on the future with curiosity, courage and compassion. That's why we empower whilst we educate. We develop mindsets alongside skillsets. We teach students to think, as well as learn. To question, not just answer. To succeed, whilst learning to fail. Working in communities, not just classrooms. We help every student experience the joy of learning, find the confidence to step into the world and dare to make a difference.

Wellington College is a school like no other. Where many focus on examination results and view league table position as the main criterion for success, the whole ethos of Wellington is focused on each and every individual who passes through our gates. We want our pupils to be inspired by everything they do at Wellington, both inside and outside of the classroom, so they leave school as interested and interesting people. We want our pupils to adopt a genuinely intellectual approach to their academic work and to their view of the world around them, in the knowledge that a Wellington education is only the beginning of an exciting and life-long journey of learning. We want our pupils to become truly independent, as those who can think, learn and cope independently will be the leaders and game-changers of the future. We want each and every pupil to be valued and developed as an individual, so their Wellington experience is much more than just going to school – rather, it is the journey to self. And we want our pupils to be inclusive in all dealings with other people, so they leave the College not in a bubble of privilege and elitism, but with the ability to engage with their local, national and international communities, and with a burning desire to do good in the world. Will you let your child join us on that journey? It could be the most inspired choice you ever make.
