Visits to Primary School
We really enjoy and value visiting our Year 6 students in their primary schools. The visits are undertaken by either Mr Marston, Headteacher, Mrs Lewis, Deputy Head or our Head of Year 7. Our aim is to visit all schools. It’s a chance for us to share information with our Rising Year 7 students and to answer any questions they may have.
Rising Year 7 SEND Forum - Tuesday 25th June, 6pm
Parents with a child on the Special Educational Needs Register are invited to an evening where more information is shared on what SEND support looks and feels like at Wallingford School. No need to inform us that you are planning to attend, just turn up.

Term Begins - Wednesday 4th September 2024
The new school year starts! To assist in the transfer from Primary to Secondary School, Year 7 will be the only students in school on that day, along with our Year 12s in sixth form. Students do not need their PE kits on the first day; students will spend time in their new tutor groups and in timetabled lessons.
