A-Levels, the IB and GCSEs on offer.
Warminster School is non-selective. The IB average 2024 was 31.6 points. These results are solid and reflect the broad intake of the school.
The school offers German, French, Spanish and Latin.
50% of pupils board. The school has five boarding houses, three for boys and two for girls. The houses have a homely feel. Weekends are busy with 70+ clubs and societies and trips organised for all, from paintballing to airhop.
Exeat weekends exist, but pupils can stay at school.
Warminster School's strength is that it is a happy, inclusive and supportive school. The combination of caring house parents, engaging teachers and tutors that oversee the pupils' progress make this happen. Further factors are the fact that thanks to the IB, Warminster has a fair share of international pupils and thus embraces everyone with patience and open-mindedness.
Another strength is the school's focus on a truly holistic education - which happens in as well as outside of the classroom. Pupils are encouraged to get involved in sports, are taught life skills such as resilience, team-work and leadership and shown how to increase their creative confidence in art, design or music.
The campus itself might lack the grandeur and visual charme of other IB schools further East. But we say: don't judge a school by its buildings!
