Together We Succeed

Rough Notes - May 2025

Welcome to the May edition of Rough Notes, our monthly magazine. Whilst this half-term has been one of shortest this year, there have still been a huge number of opportunities and activities provided to our students, I hope you enjoy reading about them.

Firstly, some desperately sad news.

Our school community was deeply saddened by the sudden, unexpected death of our friend and colleague, Mr Loveland. The countless messages received from current and former students, parents’ past and present and members of the wider education community show just how much he meant to so many people.

GCSE Results 2024

Woodroffe has a long track record of academic excellence, and this year is no different. 78% of our students achieved at least a grade 4 in both English and Maths whilst, 61% of them achieved at least a grade 5 in both English and Maths, figures which will once again put us within the top 20% of schools nationally.

Our students have achieved incredibly well across the full range of GCSE and Level 2 qualifications on offer and will continue to do so in the future.
