Services
The school has a two form entry and currently has approximately 420 pupils on roll. Woodland Grange is set amongst pleasant and spacious grounds. We believe in bringing the classroom outside and have a strong commitment to outdoor learning. We have a dedicated and extremely popular pre school which feeds into our foundation stage as well as pre and after school care onsite.
We, the school governing body, have an important role to play. Our main purpose is to provide a strategic and policy framework within which the school is run. It is the responsibility of the Headteacher and staff to guide and advise governors, implement the plans and deliver the curriculum. The Governing Body is responsible for supporting the high expectations, being a 'critical friend' to the school and holding it to account.
Woodland Grange is a two form entry primary school. We have a wonderful preschool for children aged 3 and above. Many children enter the main school from the preschool each year but securing a place in the preschool does not guarantee a place in the main school. Children then continue their journey through our school, moving from the infants into the juniors.
Many of our children begin their school life at Woodland Grange in our preschool. When the time comes, they will move up into our Foundation Stage. It is an exciting, vibrant and creative learning space where, through a wide range of play and structured activities, our children can continue their early learning in a safe and secure yet stimulating environment.
At Woodland Grange we want every child to enjoy their time at school, free from discrimination of any type. If a pupil feels they are being bullied then we hope they feel confident enough to speak to us and know that we will deal with it in a caring and sensitive way. Bullying is wrong and harmful and we do everything we can to prevent any form of discrimination.
