Welcome to the Woodside Junior School website. I am proud to be the Headteacher at Woodside, which is a welcoming, aspirational and ambitious junior school in the heart of Amersham.
At Woodside Junior School, we aim to equip our pupils with the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to thrive as individuals and members of society during the next phase of their education and beyond. We believe in our school values, which are: Curious, Kind and Collaborative.
We aim to provide an education which instils these values in our pupils and allows them to access a challenging and engaging, knowledge-rich curriculum. We hope that you find this website useful in giving a flavour of our school and hope you will feel part of our community.
If you have any further questions, or would like to arrange a visit to see our school in action, please contact the school office. Wishing our year 6 the very best of luck in the new exciting chapters that await. ☘️
