Welcome to the Early Years at Woodford Primary School.  At Woodford we believe that all children deserve to have the best possible start to their educational journey.  We aim to enable our children to learn holistically, through play, experimentation and exploration.  We plan high quality learning experiences, which help children to gain a broad range of knowledge and skills.  We provide opportunities for our children to deepen their understanding by playing, talking, observing, questioning and reflecting.  At Woodford we pride ourselves on creating a safe, calm, caring environment and in the positive relationships that we form with the children.  This positive environment allows children to thrive, feel happy and confident and enables them to develop their independence, self-esteem and resilience.  We recognise the importance of developing strong, positive relationships with parents and carers, as we understand that learning is a journey that encompasses school and home.  It is a privilege to be a part of your child’s journey.
