Steeped in over 300 years of historical tradition and set in a stunning 60-acre campus in the heart of the south west of England, we are truly a community spirited boarding and day school providing an exceptional all-round education, including the International Baccalaureate Diploma at Sixth Form, as well as being one of few schools to offer the IB Career-related programme.
What the school is known for? Strong individual academic achievement is the central pillar of a Warminster education and this will always be the case. We offer both A-Levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma at Sixth Form, as well as being one of few schools to offer the IB Career-related programme.
However, we firmly believe that what happens outside the classroom is just as important as what happens inside it.
In truth there is no 'typical' Warminster pupil and nor should there be. As a community we are happy if our pupils get stuck in, give things a go and always push themselves to achieve their potential. In doing this we find they develop a sense of direction, happy memories and long-lasting friendships.
School history A brief history of Warminster School The School has a long and fascinating history and incorporates four schools, plus a convent, in one. It was founded in 1707 by Thomas Thynne (1640 - 1714), who had been created 1st Viscount Weymouth in 1682, to educate the sons of his Longleat estate workers.
