The team

The Headteacher of the college is Mr N. Beischer Bed (Hons) and the Chair of Governors is Mr Colin Brierley MBE.

Wright Robinson College employs over 200 teaching and support staff whose shared aim is to continually improve the quality of teaching and learning for every individual student.

A recent Ofsted report praised teaching standards at Wright Robinson calling a significant amount ‘outstanding’ and this is a tribute to the professionalism of hard-working staff, determined to bring the best out of every single student. It is also as a result of the effectiveness of the senior colleagues responsible for monitoring teaching and learning in bringing about such consistency of approach, a notable feature of most of the teaching.

Lesson planning is good and aimed specifically at the range of students' needs in any particular class. The good use of information and communication technology is effectively enlivening lessons. Especially notable is the mutual
respect between staff and students and among students themselves in the classrooms, workshops and sports halls. The drive to make teaching class sizes even smaller is another reason for the increasingly individual attention students receive. These are just some of the reasons why the
students speak so well of their teachers, and make such good progress before they leave.
