Welcome from Gareth Ventin, Head of School

Welcome to West Wycombe Combined School — a small school with a big heart. It’s a real pleasure to introduce you to our wonderful community. As Head of School, I’m incredibly proud of the caring, close-knit environment we’ve created together, where strong relationships between children, staff, families and the wider community truly matter.

Everything we do is guided by our motto, ‘nurturing potential, inspiring minds, excellence for all’. This reflects our commitment to providing a high-quality, well-rounded education while ensuring every child feels safe, supported and valued within our friendly village school.

At West Wycombe, children are at the centre of everything we do. We believe that happy children learn best, and when children believe in themselves, amazing things can happen. We hold high aspirations for every child and are passionate about helping each one to flourish — academically, socially and emotionally. By getting to know our children as individuals, we support them to reach their full potential and celebrate their unique strengths.

Learning here goes beyond the classroom. Alongside the National Curriculum, we offer a rich and exciting wider curriculum and a range of extra-curricular opportunities that spark curiosity, build confidence and inspire a love of learning. West Wycombe is a place where children feel they belong, are encouraged to dream big, and are supported every step of the way.

Our values are ambition, respect, honesty, kindness, positivity and happiness. We teach all of our children to become active and responsible citizens in the community and we know they will go on to great things!

We hope this website provides you with a wealth of information and offers you an insight into life at West Wycombe School. Please email us on office@wwglt.co.uk to arrange a tour or to find out more about our open events - we'd love to meet you!
