Welcome to the website of The Kings of Wessex Academy

As one of the leading schools in the South West, The Kings of Wessex Academy strives to provide a first class education for all. We have high expectations of our students and work hard to provide the opportunities and support needed to enable them to reach their full potential. In 2011, we achieved our best ever GCSE results, with 91% of students in Year 11 achieving five or more A*-C grades. 2011 also saw the A-level pass rate reach an impressive 98%, with over one quarter of these being the top grades of A and A*.

The school's specialism is technology, which means that we are able to provide our students with state-of-the-art IT facilities and enhanced opportunities in Science, Mathematics and Design Technology.

Please take time to read the welcome message from the Headteacher, Mr. Chris Richardson.
