Woodbridge Park Education Service

Updated July 2026

Woodbridge Park Education Service is a multi-site Alternative Provision based in the London Borough of Hounslow, serving pupils from the Early Years Foundation Stage through to Key Stage Five. It provides tailored education and support for learners who are unable to be educated within a mainstream school setting.

Teaching approach

The school’s approach is founded on the belief that emotional stability and social engagement are essential prerequisites for academic and life success. It prioritizes the development of personal resilience, self-regulation, and self-esteem by building strong, stable relationships characterized by warmth, compassion, and clear social boundaries. The service aims to provide every child with a positive future, focusing on choice, freedom, and an excellent standard of life.

Programmes

The service offers a curriculum aligned with mainstream standards, covering core subjects such as Maths and English, supplemented by literacy development. Remote learning is supported through a combination of online resources and paper-based tasks, with qualified teachers providing weekly work and regular check-ins. Specialized pathways include the CATE Centre for Years 7-12, as well as interim programmes like Pathways for primary pupils and Gateway for secondary pupils.

Outcomes

In the most recent academic year, 88% of students made progress in English and 89% made progress in Maths. As of summer 2025, 78% of school leavers had secured identified post-16 destinations. Additionally, 100% of students reported feeling safe while attending the service.

Additionally, schools may refer pupils to interim programmes via the Pathways (Primary) or Gateway (Secondary) routes, which are dual-registered placements.
