Woodstock CE Primary School

What Woodstock CE Primary School does

Woodstock CE Primary School is a state-funded, maintained Church of England primary school located on Shipton Road in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England (OX20 1LL), operating under the Oxford Diocese and Oxfordshire County Council. The school delivers full-time primary education to pupils from the Early Years Foundation Stage (Nursery and Reception) through Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2) and Key Stage 2 (Years 3 to 6), following the UK National Curriculum through a two-year rolling programme of cross-curricular themes with phase-specific curriculum maps.

The core curriculum covers English, Mathematics and Science alongside foundation subjects including Art & Design, Computing, Design & Technology, Geography, History, Modern Foreign Languages (French), Music, PE & Sport, Religious Education, PSHE & RSE, and British Values. The school's product set is augmented by a suite of enrichment modules: a Forest School programme delivered in the school's own woodland, an extensive after-school clubs programme (sport, choir, orchestra, drama, language clubs), ELSA-led emotional wellbeing and nurture support, residential visits to Hill End and The Frontier Centre, STEAM career presentations, and biennial Young Voices performances. No proprietary technology platform is built; the technology footprint is limited to a Juniper-designed public-facing website and standard educational tooling.

As a maintained state school, the school provides free compulsory education to pupils aged 5–11 funded by central government per-pupil allocation; optional fee-bearing services include nursery provision for younger children, before/after-school wrap-around care, and after-school clubs. Admissions are administered through Oxfordshire County Council's admissions process, with the school serving a single local catchment in South East England. The school is led by its Headteacher and governed by a board of governors, and holds an Outstanding Ofsted rating retained in March 2025 alongside Unicef Gold Rights Respecting status, fifth Eco-Schools Green Flag, International School status, Fair Achiever status, and a National Wellbeing Award.
