  • School Library
  • Construction Skills Centre
  • Engineering and DT Facilities
  • Art and Photography Rooms

This is also a wonderful opportunity to meet our dedicated staff and students. They will be available throughout the evening to answer your questions and share what makes Westlands such a special place to learn and grow.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our school.

 

We want to make it as easy as possible for every family to visit us. If you are unable to attend our Open Evening, we would be delighted to welcome you and your family on one of our Open Morning Tours.  This is a fantastic alternative and a chance to see what our school is like on a normal day.

Westlands School offers an optional Mathematics Aptitude Test to provide prospective students with an opportunity to showcase their mathematical abilities. This test can give students a chance to demonstrate their strengths in mathematics, which can be helpful in supporting their application to our school. Places will be offered to children who score highest and places offered under this criterion will not exceed 10% of the school’s planned admission number, i.e a maximum of 29 places for the Year 7 intake. 

Overall, the mathematics aptitude test can be a valuable tool in the admissions process.

The test will be held on Saturday 15 November 2025 at Westlands School.  If you would like to book your child a place for our mathematics aptitude test please click here to complete our application form by Monday 27 October 2025.
