We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the Primary Languages Development Award at the Outstanding level.

We are really pleased to share our school involvement in the Partnership for Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS project). At Woodland Grange, we know that building strong relationships and working together to support our children and parents with SEND is the strongest pathway. We are therefore pleased to have access to the support and training opportunities the PINS project offers.

We are really pleased to be recognised with a silver award for music by the Leicestershire Music Hub
