Welcome



Waddesdon Church of England School is a mixed 11-18 voluntary aided secondary school, and as such is unique in Buckinghamshire. In July 2003, Waddesdon was awarded specialist school status and is now a Visual Arts College. It is also a Leading Edge school. In September 2006 the school was inspected by Ofsted and judged to be an outstanding school. A further inspection by the Diocese of Oxford in November 2006 also judged the school to be outstanding as a faith school.

As an Arts College, Waddesdon School aims to be a centre of excellence, promoting understanding and appreciation of the visual arts through a diverse programme of educational opportunities and events. Students are encouraged to develop their talents, learning to express their creativity through a range of artistic and aesthetic subjects.

We work with our partner schools by offering training, support and resources as well as the opportunity to network and exhibit works. We work with our community partners to maximise the opportunities for the wider community to access and participate in the visual arts.
