Welcome 

Dear Parents and carers, 

At Willowcroft we aim to provide a caring, stimulating, and healthy learning environment in which all pupils are given the opportunity to achieve their full potential. We are proud of our reputation as an inclusive, friendly and welcoming school. 

Willowcroft governing body is a dedicated team of parents, carers, community members and staff committed to ensuring that every child at our school is given the opportunity to achieve their full potential.   

We work closely with the Headteacher to set the strategic direction of the school in alignment with Willowcroft’s vision and values, monitoring its performance, and ensuring accountability.  In line with the key principles of good governance, we challenge and support the Headteacher in the continuous improvement of the school. 

All the school's Directors are proud of the school, the teachers, support staff and the pupils, who make excellent progress while they are at the school. 

Please let us know if you have any concerns we can help with. You can contact us by emailing the school clerk.
