Every year we survey our pupils to gain their views on Woodlane High School and our practices.  The senior managers and governors are pleased with this year’s results, however, we are always aiming for 100% in every area!  Here is a summary of our February 2023 pupil responses:

• On average 96% of pupils agreed/strongly agreed with the statements (all set in the positive mode).
• 96% of pupils believe Woodlane is a good school (3 pupils disagreed).

• 97% of pupils feel the school deals with any problems so they feel safe (2 pupils stated they do not feel safe – please note, when interviewed one pupil felt he is on the road to feeling safe and one stated he didn’t because of rude comments by other pupils, he gave examples which were at a low level but still important to the pupil e.g. a pupil telling him not to stare at them).
