Welcome to Woodkirk Academy

Open Evening at Woodkirk Academy

THURSDAY 12 OCTOBER

6pm to 8.30pm

(The Academy closes at 2pm on this day)

SEPT 2023

Dear Year 6 Parent,

I would like to invite you to our Open Evening on Thursday 12 October. This annual event gives parents an opportunity to meet our experienced staff, to see our specialist facilities and to learn about the wide range of courses that we offer. Most importantly, it allows you to see us at work and to meet our fantastic students who are, in my opinion, the best ambassadors for our Academy. 

The doors to the school open at 6pm and there will be two presentations in the Main Hall: 6.15pm and 7.15pm.

We hope that the Open Evening, plus our website, prospectus, published exam results, the most recent Ofsted Inspection report and, crucially, the very positive reputation of the Academy in the local community, will give you a significant amount of information to base your decision as to which secondary school you choose for your son/daughter for September 2024.

I should point out that the school is currently heavily over-subscribed, with waiting lists, and we expect a high number of applications for September 2024. We have a very clear admission criteria which we follow.  Please refer to our Admission Policy on our website for details of this criteria.                           

I am passionate about the first class education that Woodkirk Academy can provide for all students. I hope that you will be convinced that this is the right place for your child.

Please remember to submit your application by 31 October to the Local Authority where you pay your council tax.
