Welcome to Woodcote Primary School

Woodcote Primary School is a school for boys and girls from 3 to 11 years of age, and is part of The Pioneer Academy Trust, with 120 children admitted to each Year Group.  

Woodcote Primary is situated on the borders of Coulsdon and Purley.

Woodcote Primary is extremely well resourced, set in a wonderful green setting with educational facilities that offer unique learning opportunities.

Woodcote classrooms are bright, attractive and well equipped with an excellent range of reading books, science and technology equipment, construction toys and mathematical apparatus.

Woodcote teachers have high expectations of children’s learning. A balance of teaching styles is used across all year groups, including whole class, group and individual work. Teachers differentiate work, based on every child’s ability, to ensure that every child has the opportunity to work to his or her personal best. Where necessary, children are supported by teaching and learning assistants to enhance their learning or assist with learning difficulties. Children who have a particular gift or talent are catered for both within the classroom and the wider school community.

Woodcote Primary School Vision

Every day at Woodcote Primary we inspire, challenge and engage our children to aim high and have pride in their individuality. Through positive relationships, all members of our community are valued, voices are heard, and children create lasting memories that enable them to branch out into the wider world.
