Headteacher’s Welcome

At Whitby School, we are proud to serve a community that is more than just a place - it is a shared spirit, a network of families, traditions, and aspirations. Whitby and its surrounding area truly is a community, and we are honoured to be at its heart. Our aim is to serve our community with dedication and integrity, and in turn, we hope for its continued support - because together, we are stronger.

Our four key values - Ambition, Courage, Character, and Endeavour - are the pillars of everything we do. Whitby School is proud to hold the future within its walls. Every lesson, every conversation, every act of kindness helps shape the leaders, thinkers, and citizens of tomorrow.

Our motto, Ad finem terrae - To the ends of the earth - reminds us that the world is wide, full of opportunity, and waiting to be explored. We want our children to aim for exciting, far-reaching goals, knowing that their journey can take them anywhere.
