Wye School is a British, mixed, secondary, free school in Wye, Kent. As of 2022, it is operated by United Learning.[2]

History

Wye School opened in September 2013, following a community campaign for a free school in the Ashford area.[3]

In June 2015, the school had its first Ofsted inspection and was judged to be 'Good'. That grading was confirmed in 2018.[4]

Academic results

In 2018, the school's first students received their GCSE results. 66% achieved five or more 9-4/A*-C grades including English and mathematics.[5]

In 2019, 78% of students achieved at least a grade 4 or above in both English and mathematics. Forty nine per cent achieved grade 5 or above in both subjects.[6]
