If you would like to look round the school with a view to a place for your child, please contact the office to make arrangements. We look forward to seeing you. We will be holding our last Open Morning before the application deadline for September 26 (15th January) on Thursday 8th January 2026. Our first Open Morning for a September 27 start is June 11th.

Welcome to Great Wood School

We aim to bring learning alive, making it exciting and stimulating. We want to give our children a thirst for learning that continues with them throughout their future school experiences and lives. An essential ingredient for this to happen is teamwork. We view education as a joint venture involving everyone- children, parents, staff, governors and the wider community.

We hope that we will be able to depend on your co-operation and support in this partnership to provide the best for every child.

John Ross (Headteacher)

Thanks to all the EYFS children for growing the plants and also to Liz and David who support us with this every year. πŸ«›πŸ˜€ ... See MoreSee Less
