Facilities include gymnasium, tennis courts, football/rugby pitch, hockey pitch, basketball court, a squash court and heated swimming pool (part of Wadebridge Leisure Centre).
In 2006 the school came in second place behind Truro High School in the league tables for the average A-level points score per student in Cornwall. This meant that Wadebridge School beat the independent and selective Truro School into third place, a feat that was achieved again in 2008.[4][5]
