WOODCHURCH HIGH SCHOOL TRANSITION

Woodchurch high school is a very successful, over-subscribed co-educational Church of England school, which strives to live out its vision: ‘let your light so shine before all, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven’

Matthew 5:16

Welcome to Your New School!

Hello and welcome to all our new pupils and your families. We are so excited that you will soon be joining our school community and we can’t wait to get started on this exciting journey with you.

Moving to secondary school can feel like a big step, but don’t worry. You are not doing it alone. We have been busy all year, trying to get to know you. In fact, we have visited over 44 different primary schools, and held over 100 meetings. For some, you may even have visited us in Year 5. So by now, you will already have met at least one of us – and that’s just the beginning.

On Induction Day, you will meet your form tutor, your form group, your Pupil Progress Leader and Assistant Pupil Progress Leader, plus key members of our leadership and support teams. You are not just joining a school – you are joining a community that knows who you are and believes in you from day one.
