Woodbridge School

Set in the beautiful town of Woodbridge in Suffolk, Woodbridge School comprising our Pre-Prep, Prep and Senior School was established in 1587.  An independent co-educational day and boarding school for ages 4 to 18, the original mission of the School was to provide an education for the young who would then give back to their community, thus enriching it and them all; this is embedded and continues in all that we do today.

Woodbridge School, including our Prep, Senior School, Sixth Form and Boarding, has been rated ‘Excellent’ in all areas by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) 2023.

Combining the best of tradition and innovation, our curriculum delivers the perfect balance of life skills, creative challenges and academic excellence.  Woodbridge School offers an education that shapes itself around each student, ensuring they become everything they are meant to be.  Our Prep School is a caring nurturing, lively and inspirational introduction to School, inspiring and investing a true love of learning in children.  Our Senior School offers the perfect balance of creative challenges, academic excellence as well as interpersonal and social skills, for life throughout School – and beyond.

Every opportunity at Woodbridge School

Students have access not only to an excellent education but to a wealth of pastoral care, co-curricular activities, societies and sport.  From learning hockey with a double Olympian, working with precious metals and fabrics in Leatherworking and Silversmithing, to attending Chess lessons taught by an International Chess Master, learning and exploring new techniques in Maths challenges, experimenting for fun in Science Club, developing performance skills in LAMDA and debating with our MUN club, there is something for every student.

‘Pupils develop excellent skills in the broader curriculum through a wide-ranging programme of extra-curricular activities.’ ISI Report 2023

Collaborative relationships

We expect students to work hard, develop the ability to work independently and to achieve excellent results as they have done this year; their superb GCSE and A level results reflect both the achievements and successful collaboration of and between our students and teachers; our students confirming their relationships with teachers is one of the main reasons they choose to stay on to study A levels at our Sixth Form.

We monitor progress carefully and provide targeted support when necessary, and always keep parents proactively informed, encouraging you to feel easy about contacting us at any time about any matter.

Clear vision and values

Of course, preparing young people for life means much more than just excellent grades.  It means young people developing strong communication skills, the ability to lead and work with others and, above all, a self-confidence to positively contribute to the society in which they live.  This means at Woodbridge, what happens outside of the classroom is just as important as what happens inside.  Offering parents and students clear vision and values, which guide dynamic, respectful, high-achieving students to not only find their path but to fulfil their potential; at Woodbridge your child’s journey is our entire focus.

A flexible, comprehensive system of bus routes

With a number of minibus services operating daily throughout the local region, Woodbridge School offers a comprehensive system of bus routes reaching across Suffolk as well as Essex.

Full and weekly boarding

For those living further afield, the School offers full and weekly boarding options.  Boarders form a vital part of the community at Woodbridge School, with everyone supporting and learning from one another.
