About Woodcote Primary School
Woodcote Primary School was formed in September 2008 following the amalgamation of Woodcote Infant and Nursery School and Woodcote Junior School. Both schools were adjacent to each other and shared the same site.
Woodcote Primary is a popular, oversubscribed school with a reputation for high academic standards. 90 pupils join the school in Reception each year into 3 forms of entry. In addition there is a 52 place nursery called Woodies.
The school is situated in a quiet residential area and is adjacent to Woodcote High School, separated by shared playing fields.
Woodcote Primary School benefits from its original roots in two separate schools in terms of excellent resources, facilities and a highly skilled and knowledgeable staff.
