About Ark Academy Wembley

Ark Academy Wembley is one of eight secondary schools in Brent rated Outstanding by Ofsted, placing it in the top tier of the borough’s 18 state secondaries. The school sits just 0.6 km from its nearest Outstanding-rated neighbour — itself — and competes in a strong local field that includes Michaela Community School, Wembley High Technology College and JFS, the three highest-ranked peers in the local authority by performance score. As an all-through state school for ages 3 to 18, it serves a large community of 1,800 pupils and is led by headteacher Delia Smith. Its location in Brent, a diverse London borough, means families are choosing between several high-performing options, and Ark Academy’s Outstanding rating puts it among the most selective in the area.
