Open Evening and School Tours
Current Year 5 (Joining September 2024) - join our mailing list here
Dear Parents, Carers 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
“The past is written, but the future is left for us to write.
And we have powerful tools, openness, optimism, and the spirit of curiosity.” (Jean-Luc Picard)
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 2021. 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.
