Wellington College

About

Wellington College is the place where a fusion of originality, innovation and 150 years of tradition and history produces an education unlike any other.

Mission

Our core aim is to make Wellington College one of Britain's, and the world's, leading and most inspiring co-educational schools for boarding and day pupils. We aim to be a 'world class' school, which compares with the very best establishments anywhere in the world, in Europe, North America and beyond. We seek to be a vibrant and challenging school which opens the minds and hearts of our pupils, teachers, parents and all other members of our community. We wish to provide a transformative experience, developing to the full each pupil's 'Eight Aptitudes' including their intellectual, artistic, sporting, spiritual and social faculties, while ensuring that each grows to understand that serving and caring for others brings the highest rewards in life and the greatest likelihood of long term happiness and fulfilment. The College will build upon its honourable past, dating back 150 years, while adapting its values and traditions for the 21st century in a sustainable way. Wellington is a Christian foundation, though remaining open to and respectful of children from all religious faiths. A commitment to leadership, service and an international outlook lie at the heart of its values.
