We are always delighted to hear what our Alumni are up to and would love to continue to celebrate your key life events even once you have left our school. Please keep an eye on our Social Media platforms to stay up to date with Alumni events and to see how you could become more involved with our school community. Ex-pupils are often a source of inspiration to our current pupils, and we would be delighted if you would like to return to Wrenn to share your education and career paths.

JOIN OUR FUTURE FIRST ALUMNI NETWORK

We are calling on all former Wrenn students to sign up to our alumni network with national education charity Future First.

This is an opportunity for former Wrenn students to network, keep in touch with the Wrenn community and pay it forward by helping our current students’ progress to the next stage in their education or career. Indeed, your experiences since leaving could help to motivate and inspire our current students to feel more confident in making decisions about their future.

You can choose how and when you help – perhaps you can act as a career and education role model, provide work experience, or become a mentor in person or online.

It doesn’t matter when you left us, whether you’re in further education or employment, whether you still live nearby or have moved further away, there are still ways you can help.

In order to sign up, just follow this link or scan the QR code and fill in the online form – we promise it will only take a couple of minutes: Sign up to Wrenn's Alumni Network

Alumni Events

We hope to arrange special events for our Alumni to return to Wrenn and remember where it all began. Watch this space for future events!

In previous years we have invited Alumni to support at parent events such as the Year 11’s Passport to success evening. This allows parents the chance to speak to Alumni who have gone through the process to get their input.

We also run a yearly workshop which invites all Wrenn Alumni to come in and speak to our students regarding the choices they made, where they are now and what they would have done differently or what they wish they had known when they were at school. This is a really fabulous workshop, that allows our students the chance to explore future career options.

Wrenn Alumni

At Wrenn School we are very proud of our Alumni.

Our students go on to achieve in a wide range of fields and often say that the work ethic, social skills and confidence they develop during their time with us has helped them in their careers.

Below are some academic achievements of our former students:

History of Wrenn School

Wrenn School traces its history back to the 1907 establishment of the Wellingborough Grammar School for Girls and arose from the merger of that school with Wellingborough Grammar School, opened in 1930. The now comprehensive

Wrenn School opened in September 1975, having been named after the final Headmaster of the grammar school, Mr Harry Wrenn.

The Wellingborough Grammar School for girls was opened at The Lindens in Midland Road by the governors of Wellingborough School to offer a ‘higher education to girls from comparatively ordinary backgrounds.’ In its first year it had 7 staff and welcomed 28 girls.

The school developed such that by 1911 the county council had taken over its running and it relocated to the impressive site on London Road, now the upper school section of Wrenn School, welcoming 105 girls.

The school continued to develop under the leadership of Miss Tinkler (1907-1937), Miss Schofield (1937-44), Miss Horton (1944-1968) whose term of office saw a number of initiatives introduced to raise funds for the opening of the swimming pool in 1960. The school’s final Headteacher, Miss Hubbert (1968-75), would go on to be the first Headteacher of Wrenn School.
