Congratulations to pupils and staff for another very successful year of academic results at Woodcroft.

• Early Years Foundation Stage Profile increased by 4% 
• Year 1 Phonics results were up 25% to an excellent 76.5% pass 
• Year 2 Phonics increased to achieve 77% pass
• Year 4 secured an excellent average of 21 out of 25 in the national Multiplication Tables Check
• Year 6 exceeded national levels in every subject (see below)

These results demonstrate the excellent education that pupils receive at Woodcroft. We expect high academic standards and exemplary learning behaviour. These outstanding results demonstrate the success that this brings.

This is the final Woodcroft Weekly newsletter of this academic year – where has the time gone?

I think today’s newsletter encapsulates what Woodcroft is about. Firstly, we are able to report on another year of amazing Y6 SATs results! Significantly exceeding national levels in every subject and demonstrating what fantastic teaching takes place. However, in addition to high academic expectations this edition of the newsletter also shines a spotlight on our wider curriculum, in particular the exceptional arts and sporting opportunities offered at Woodcroft.

It is also about the wider community that we are part of. This week, families have joined us for Y6 leavers shows, EYFS picnics and a wonderful a staff lunch provided by a group of kind parents.

Finally, we say farewell to Year 6 in the knowledge they have the foundations to achieve whatever they want to at high school. We also say goodbye to valued members of staff; Ms Vanner, Mr Guest and Miss Ali, and wish them well for the future.

Have a great summer, and don’t forget to sign your child up for the Summer Reading Challenge at your local library.

WOW! We have were amazed by the talent on show at the Woodcroft WOW Factor. Over two separate performances, KS1 and KS2, we saw some supremely gifted singers, dancers, magicians, gymnasts and musicians. We also had the honour of welcoming our VIP judges into school: Tom Jones, Sharon Osborne, Taylor Swift and the one and only Simon Cowell. However, something did look a bit suspicious about their appearance! Nevertheless, they were all astonished by the quality and standard of every performance that took to our WOW Factor Stage.
