Welcome to The Emmbrook School.

Tours September 2022

We are delighted to launch our school tours from the 12^th - 27^th September 2022. These tours allow you to visit the school during a normal day to see the work we do with all students across all subjects and key stages. I really welcome your Y6 students joining you on the tour so they can begin the transition process from an early start. Tours start at 9.10am, further details will be sent through before the event. You can book your place here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-emmbrook-school-tour-tickets-413973414627

Dear Parents and Students,

I am delighted to welcome you to The Emmbrook School. As a father of two (both at secondary school), I am acutely aware that choosing the right school is such a significant decision. This page will offer you a digital introduction to The Emmbrook.

Every September, I select a quote that sums up our ambition for the year ahead; this year “Reach for the stars” – I know it’s cheesy, but it’s important to me that we all work hard to keep this school fun, caring and engaging so that every student will achieve academic and personal excellence.

I hope to meet you in one form or another in the coming months, via our tours, during the open evenings or at one of my online morning meetings for parents. Information regarding all these events will be released soon. In the meantime, if I can assist you personally, then please do contact me (nmcsweeney@emmbrook.wokingham.sch.uk).

The schools in Wokingham are excellent, that should make this process easier, but somehow it makes it harder! Good luck with choosing the school that is right for you.

Best wishes,

Nick McSweeney

Results 2022

We are incredibly proud of the fantastic results achieved by our Year 11 students today. These students have faced so much uncertainty and disruption as a result of Covid-19 and yet showed incredible resilience and maturity to produce results well ahead of 2019 (when public exams were last sat).

Students performed well across English, Maths and Science, with the three subjects together producing the best combined exam results The Emmbrook has seen in a generation. Over half of the cohort secured a 7 grade or above (A & A* in the previous grading system).

We are so proud of every single one of them for their continued effort, diligence and ambition.

Meet the Head

We ran a series of 'Meet the Headteacher' video chat sessions from September 21st until October 2nd. These allowed over 100 families to spend time with Mr McSweeney (over video conferencing software) and ask pertinent questions about the school.  Watch a recording of one of the videos below.

 

Open Evening

We ran 3 live Open Evening events on the 7th, 8th and 9th October where presentations were given by the Headteacher (Mr McSweeney), Head of Year (Mrs Hodgson) and JD and Olivia (Head boy and Head girl).

Below is a recording of this event from Thursday 8th October.
