"Mixed Feelings about Wrekin Prep"
We've been at Wrekin Prep for a year now, and while our child has settled in well, we're still unsure about the school's approach to teaching. The facilities are lovely, but we feel that the school could do more to engage parents in the learning process.

"A Community that Truly Cares"
We moved to Wrekin College from another school and were a bit apprehensive. But from the offset, we've felt a sense of belonging. The pastoral care is exceptional and our child has excelled in their academic and sporting pursuits.
