INTRODUCTION
Woodlands School
offers a full time,
dynamic and
forward-thinking
Sixth Form.
It is a Sixth Form that is small enough for us to know and help
you personally, but large enough to provide a broad range of
courses. We will offer you an adult environment where you will
be continually encouraged and supported as you maximise your
potential. We will have high expectations of you. You will have
responsibilities and you will be helped to develop your personal
skills and qualities. The Sixth Form has a proven record of excellent
examination success and, equally important, of students moving
successfully to the next stage of their career.
Each of our students has their own academic interests, their own
academic requirements, their own extra-curricular pursuits, their
own skills and talents. Woodlands will seek to make the most of
these individual attributes; it is our mission to provide the best
opportunity for our students to prepare thoroughly for their futures.

LOCATION AND FACILITIES
A beautiful and functional
space for everyone
joining Woodlands.
In September 2016 we opened our brand new school buildings.
Over 85% of the school was rebuilt and renewed.
We now have wonderful facilities including science laboratories,
specialist classrooms, a Learning Resource Centre, music rooms,
drama studio, technology rooms and an Atrium with Café.
All the classrooms are spacious with good natural light and
equipped to a very high standard.
Our priority is always to have a safe and secure school environment.
To that end we have recently completed an enhanced security
package with the intention to safeguard the student community.
9LOCATION AND FACILITIES
Sixth Form students have the luxury of
enjoying purpose-built accommodation
that is reserved for their use only.
During study periods, they are able to
use two large study rooms, (one silent
and one for group work) which are fully
equipped with computers and Wi-fi
access if students wish to bring their
own devices.
In addition, our brand new ‘Atrium Café’
serves food and drinks to sixth form
students throughout the day, as well
as providing a large, informal study
space where students can go in their
study periods. At lunchtimes, this area
is open only to Sixth Form and Year 11,
providing a more adult offering of food
from the usual ‘school dinners.’
Sixth formers also have full access
throughout the day to our Learning
Resource Centre, which houses more
computer facilities, as well as our
brand new library.
1011
LOCATION AND FACILITIES
Our school is named Woodlands for a
reason – we are surrounded by trees
and green spaces.
A high quality learning environment is
very important to us and we strive to
maintain our grounds, buildings and
facilities to a high standard.
In addition to our new facilities, we
have a modern sports hall, fitness
suite, swimming pool, two floodlit all-
weather pitches, extensive sports fields
and state-of-the-art meeting, dining &
theatre facilities – all of which we also
use to support our partner primary
schools and the surrounding community.
Our classroom facilities are excellent
across all our curriculum areas and
we are constantly upgrading our
ICT provision. We further enhance
our teaching and learning with a
well-stocked library, manned by
dedicated library staff within the
new Learning Resource Centre.
12Our modern refectory and student dining
facilities are ably managed by a fully
qualified chef who provides rich, varied
and healthy food options each and every
day of the school year. This expertise is
also transferred to many of our students
who enjoy studying catering and who
increasingly provide splendid hospitality
at many school events.
Since its creation in 2011 the new school
Theatre has been the scene of many
musical triumphs from a gala concert to
celebrate its opening, to ‘Woodland’s
Got Talent’, ‘Songs from the Shows’
and ‘Les Miserables’, as well as several
collaborative music concerts with local
primary schools.
Recently we have seen several
imaginative curriculum innovations from
off timetable sessions to allow students
more in depth experience of healthy
living options and the chance to explore
many career aspirations.
We are realising ‘anytime, anywhere
learning’ through whole school wi-fi
and a highly innovative staff and student
tablet device programme.
We certainly believe in developing
the whole child, from the moment
they join us as young 11 year olds, to
the moment they leave us at 18 as
confident young adults.
There is no doubt that the facilities
at Woodlands help to enhance the
experience of our Sixth Form students
to ensure that ready to take advantage
of all that the world has to offer.
13CASE STUDY
“What was the best thing
about being at Woodlands?
Realising how well prepared I was
to study at a top five university”
Tom Lewsley, former Allestree Woodlands School and Sixth Form student, graduated
with a First Class Honours Degree in Politics from the University of Warwick.
After leaving university Tom went to work for a Swiss Investment Bank in the
City of London. He now works in their New York office in Manhattan.

opinions which we proactively debated in class. How did Woodlands prepare you for university?
The biggest difference for me personally though, After completing my A levels, I enrolled at the
was that I found an immediate goal to focus on. University of Warwick to study a degree in Politics.
With university only two years away, I felt like I had Given Warwick’s position as a top five University,
14I always had a slight concern that I might end up
being ‘bottom of the class’ in my new environment.
Soon after joining however, these concerns vanished
and I realized just how well prepared I was. I found that
many of my peers at university had been taught the
content required to pass their A level exams, rather than
how to use a set of core problem solving skills to adapt
to the task at hand. At Woodlands I was exposed to a
balance between these approaches. Towards the end
of Year 13, teachers often set us challenging problems
that were ‘beyond the standard required for A level
students’. I didn’t quite believe it until I first arrived at
university to study a completely new subject.
Without any content knowledge to fall back on, I
realised just how important these core skills are for
succeeding in unfamiliar environments. In this respect,
Woodlands prepared me incredibly well.
What was University like for you?
Overall, a fantastic experience which has opened so
many doors. Warwick is made up of 25% international
students, so I met people from all over the world and
from a wide range of backgrounds. After graduating,
everybody spread out across the globe and I found
myself with an amazing network of friends across
geographies. Three years is too much to cover here,
but I had an opportunity to test myself against
intelligent people, to try new sports and societies
and to work for a range of exciting companies.
I can’t recommend it enough.
What advice would you give the students of today?
I think my advice would change depending on
where you are in the process. For A levels, it’s all
about working hard academically and focusing on
the immediate goal of getting into a good university.
Start looking at your options early on and work out
what you need to achieve in order to succeed.
You can’t aim too high, so don’t rule anything out in
your first year. Once you’re at university, it becomes
about getting involved in as much as possible.
Meet people, build your network and apply for work
experience and internship positions starting in your
first year – otherwise you are already a year behind
other proactive students. I found the easiest way was
to find someone who had been through it all before and
learn from their experience, these people always have
helpful advice and offer a constant reminder that your
goals are achievable.
15RAISING OF THE PARTICIPATION AGE
In the past, young people could leave education when
they were 16 years old, but things have changed.
All young people are now expected to stay in some
form of learning until they are 18 years old.
Why do students need to
stay in education longer?
The world of work is changing.
New jobs are being created and
many will be more complicated and
demanding. Therefore, employers
are looking for people with more
skills, training and qualifications.
‘Academic

What does this mean? Ofsted
It means that every student needs
to start thinking about the type of
learning or training they need to do,
to get them where they want to be
in the future.
Applying to join the Sixth Form at Woodlands will
ensure that every student makes the most of this
opportunity to learn for longer.

CASE STUDY
“What was the best thing
about being at Woodlands?
I knew I was getting the
best possible opportunities
to further my education”
Cara Fox, former Allestree Woodlands School and Sixth Form student, graduated with a
First Class Honours Degree in Maths from Sheffield Hallam University.
After completing PGCE – teacher training, Cara has started her first job as a Maths teacher.
Why did you do your A Levels at Woodlands?
My friends were going, I knew the school and I knew that the quality of
teaching is really high so I would be able to make the most of the opportunity.
How was it different?
I was treated like an adult and the teachers became more sociable.
You were able to lead the learning more yourself. You’re doing subjects you
have chosen, so it was more enjoyable as you could really focus. I felt a lot
more relaxed than when I was in the lower forms!
What did you find difficult?
The level of work is a lot higher but it’s worth it because once I got to
University I was already able to work at the level they demand. It was
definitely good preparation.
What made you choose to go on to University?
I wanted to pursue Maths a bit further, and had visited friends from the year
above me who were already at University and could see what a good time
they were having.
How do you think going to Woodlands prepared you for University?
Definitely my work ethic, as I was fully able to cope with the workload at
University having tackled A Levels at Woodlands! Also life skills, because
at Woodlands it’s a real sense of community and all about making strong
supportive friendships, so I felt more able to do that once I got here.
What would you say to anyone thinking of studying at Woodlands?
If you want a place where you can work and learn in a friendly and supportive
environment, I would definitely recommend Woodlands. I had a fantastic time.
