Dec 29, 2015 at 18:43 comment added Allen Knutson The natural action is of $W$ on the right of $G/T$, not $G/B$, but they're homotopic and so have the same cohomology. If that's what you want, then as a $W$-module it's the regular representation. This is proved in e.g. Humphreys' gray book on Coxeter groups, by a Galois theory argument.
