Our mission demonstrates our commitment to educating the whole child.
“Our mission is to develop exceptional, well-qualified and well-rounded young people who make a positive contribution to our school, our community and the world".
These three words capture what we believe is most important for every student and every member of our school community. They reflect our commitment to ensuring that every young person feels valued, achieves their potential and develops the confidence and character to succeed in life.
At Wood Green, we all belong and we all play our part in helping others to belong too.
For our students, this means creating a school where everyone feels welcomed, respected and supported. Through strong attendance, positive relationships and a culture of inclusion, we want every student to feel that Wood Green is a place where they are known, valued and able to flourish.
At Wood Green, we all want the very best outcomes for others and for ourselves. We commit to continually improving, striving for excellence and making our school the very best it can be.
For our students, this means having high expectations and ambitious opportunities. We want every young person to believe in their potential, work hard towards their goals and develop the knowledge, skills and qualifications that will open doors for their future.
At Wood Green, we all want everyone to thrive. We commit to supporting, encouraging and challenging one another so that everyone can grow and succeed, and we achieve our mission for all students.
For our students, thriving means more than academic success. It means excellent personal development, strong wellbeing, rich enrichment opportunities and outstanding preparation for adult life. We want every student to leave Wood Green ready to make a positive contribution to the world and to live a happy and fulfilling life.
Our values of Belong, Aspire and Thrive will guide our decisions, shape our culture and underpin everything we do. Most importantly, they place students at the centre of our work and remind us of our shared responsibility to help every young person succeed.
