School Type: Co-Educational

To measure the greatness of a school, some would count the pupils.
At Wembley College, we prefer to make the pupils count.

Founded in 1997, Wembley College is an independent, co-educational school that provides a world class education in a supportive environment with a Christian ethos. Catering for pupils from Grades RRR-12, Wembley College is situated on a sizable property in Greytown, overlooking the picturesque farming valley.
Pre-Primary (3-6 years)

Wembley College is a registered Cambridge Primary School. With the consistent and stable programme that we provide, we develop lively enquiring minds, an imagination, perseverance, a sound work ethic, coupled with enjoyment and fun. The children also develop a sense of self-respect, confidence and moral values across all cultures.

Primary (Grades 1-7)

The main goals in the Primary phases are the cementing of sound English and Maths skills, linked with the development of strong social and emotional life skills before entering the more demanding years of high school. Our passionate and qualified staff regard the individual needs of our pupils as a priority. The Cambridge Primary Programme is balanced and comprehensive and aims to extend the pupils to achieve their potential.
