Vacancies
The Forest School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of students and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service clearance being received.
Since opening as a grammar school in 1945, The Forest School has been a cornerstone of educational excellence. Many of the traditions and values that defined our early years remain at the heart of the school today.
Previously, we were a boys' secondary school with a co-educational Sixth Form. However, from September 2024 we transitioned to co-educational for Year 7 students. This exciting change reflects our commitment to inclusivity and diversity, creating a vibrant learning community where boys and girls thrive together.
In 2023, our results placed The Forest School among the top-performing schools in Wokingham, ranking in the top four overall and third for boys in the Borough. We consistently exceed national averages for boys' progress and attainment and eagerly anticipate celebrating the achievements of our first co-educational cohort in 2028.
Our ethos, Aspire to Become Elite, coupled with a strong focus on character development, ensures that Forest students leave prepared for responsible adulthood, equipped with principled values that positively impact their lives and the wider world.
