There can be few buildings in Leek that are as iconic as the Old Hall at Westwood College. A school, however, has to be more than just a collection of buildings and throughout its history staff have sought to foster commitment to Westwood by parents, students, Governors and others in the community so that they will work for its development. This commitment, too, has been a constant theme binding together the successive generations that have attended the school.Rarely can a school, and its buildings, have generated such a strong feeling of attachment from its community. The current position of strength, that the College finds itself in as it enters this period of change, has its foundations in the efforts of the successive generations of people that have worked so tirelessly to make this college the exciting place that it to work and study today.
