Watergrove is a place where everyone in our community, regardless of age, can thrive and learn.
Encompassing nursery, primary and secondary schools, Watergrove constantly invests in staff development and school improvement, with equal benefit to the individual and the institution.
The success of our community comes from our lived values.
Providing more, as one community,
to enable life in all its fullness.
Learners come first and we are all responsible for the quality of their experience and well-being.
Everyone belongs and everyone is included.
We are part-centralised and co-create quality through collaboration, whilst maintaining schools’ individual identities.
We currently have nine schools, six primary and three secondary, each bringing their own special qualities and expertise to share. Explore our schools below:
Keep up to date
Keep up to date with everything going on at the Watergrove Trust. Read about our incredible staff, students and all the exciting events that go on within our schools.
We know cold mornings can be tough when your child has a minor sniffle. However, research consistently shows that consistent attendance leads to stronger exam results, deeper friendships, and better preparation for post-16 applications.
Attendance matters.

Exciting news! Co-op Members can now choose to support Wardle Academy as part of the Local Community Fund.
We would like to expand our school garden provision to support more learners experiencing trauma and mental health difficulties across our academy and local community. By selecting Wardle Academy via your Co-op app, we can make this happen!
To select the fund, just open your Co-op app, tap "wallet" and scroll down to select the local cause. There is no cost to members and funding will be used to expand our garden provision.
