NEW Woodlands Park headteacher Sarah Rogers says she is excited to be starting work at the ‘wonderful’ school, and has promised to work with other local schools to get the best results.

Woodlands was judged to be ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted in all five key areas in an inspection earlier this year, putting it among the top schools in the country.

The rating was a tribute to former head Heather Hanrott, who retired at the end of last academic year.

Mrs Rogers said she is excited about the challenge of continuing to ensure that all children achieve success in terms of academic achievement, and personal and social development.
