What the school offers its staff
Woolmore is a happy, inclusive and exciting place to learn and our children love coming to school. We have been in our purpose-built new school building since February 2015, where we have developed into a thriving three-form entry primary school.
To ensure that every child achieves success, we ask ourselves ‘what would it take?’ to move forward – and then we do it! We offer children great teaching, guidance and support, and we help them grow into good global citizens. We have high expectations for everyone connected to our school community: children, parents, staff, governors and visitors. We work together and we are proud of the standards we achieve. This website will show you how we do it.
