About William Brookes School
William Brookes School joined The 3-18 Education Trust in April 2021.
William Brookes School is a place where students tell us they feel safe and nurtured and have access to extraordinary educational resources. The school’s backdrop is the breath-takingly beautiful Shropshire countryside, and whilst a proportion of our students live in the market town of Much Wenlock, we also serve a uniquely wide catchment area from rural hamlets to the large town of Telford.
We are honoured to be the only Coubertin school in Great Britain and we embrace the rich history of Olympian traditions. Our school values are focused around the Olympic values of respect, excellence and friendship. These are values that our children experience from one another and from staff – these values run through the veins of the school.
As a school, our purpose is to educate. Education is the key to successful futures and provides choices and opportunities for our students. The classroom should be a place of focus and learning, where the magic happens. That said, our school also provides exceptional extra-curricular, enrichment opportunities for our students. An extraordinary number of trips abroad and a wide range of clubs, allow students to flourish in and outside of the classroom.

"We are the winners of the BBC Radio Shropshire Make a Difference the young hero Award 2026 "
To be in a room with so many people doing amazing things for their communities was truly inspiring. Everyone we met was so kind and passionate about making a difference.
And we’re absolutely buzzing that The Shropshire Lad was the judge in our category and chose us! 🙌Thank you so much for believing in what we do. Epic moment!
Thank you to Caroline Bagnall for Broseley for nominating us!
And a massive THANK YOU to everyone in Broseley for all your support. Our phones have "blown up" with messages.
Finally, a huge shout-out to our Mum, The Banjo Ma! She’s been dragged into the baking from day one 😂 Helping with orders and annoyingly reminding us what we’ve forgotten! Thank you for helping us.
We’re incredibly proud to be the winners of this award, and we couldn’t have done it without everyone who has supported us along the way.
The Banjo Bros 🏆❤️🎉
