The Woodside Primary Academy

About The Woodside Primary Academy

The Woodside Primary Academy is a large state primary in Waltham Forest that delivers academic results broadly in line with the local authority average, but its headline figures tell a more nuanced story. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 66% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the Waltham Forest average of 74% for all primary schools. That places the school 38th out of 48 primaries in the borough, in the bottom quarter locally. However, the school’s average scores in reading (106) and maths (105) are both above the national benchmark of 100, and 13% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects. The gap between expected attainment and higher attainment is notable: 27% hit the higher standard in reading and 27% in maths, but only 22% did so in writing, suggesting writing is the weaker leg of the trio.
