One of our long-standing traditions here at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Girls is clapping out the Year 7s, come rain or shine. And while the weather didn’t quite cooperate today, the spirit certainly did!

And while the skies opened up this afternoon, our incredible staff still lined the walkway with smiles and applause, giving our new cohort the warmest send-off as they headed home.

We are so proud of how confidently our Year 7s embraced their first day, and we can’t wait to see all they will achieve this year. Here's to new beginnings and bright futures!

Watch the moment in action! Check out our YouTube Short showcasing this special tradition:

The Journey Begins: Year 7s First Day at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Girls

Today marks a truly special milestone at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Girls, as we warmly welcome our newest cohort of Year 7 students.

This morning, our hall was filled with excitement and anticipation as our Year 7s came together for the very first time in a whole year group assembly - a moment that marks the beginning of their journey with us.

Throughout the day, students will take part in a variety of engaging team-building activities within their tutor groups, explore the school through guided tours, and learn about our routines and expectations, all before lunch!

We are absolutely thrilled to begin this new chapter with such a vibrant and promising group of young people. Here's to a fantastic start and a future full of growth, discovery, and success!

Today we celebrate the achievements of our students with our second round of GCSE results. Once again, we are very proud of how our students have exceeded expectations in a number of subject areas.

We have achieved excellent outcomes again this year in English with over 81% achieving a strong pass at Grade 5 in GCSE English Literature and 30% at Grade 7 and above. Other standout achievements include 46% of students achieving Grade 7 and above in GCSE Citizenship and 43% of students achieving Grade 7 and above in GCSE French.

Whilst there is no P8 measure this year, our results analysis shows that we are once again above national performance with 70% of students achieving 4+ in GCSE Maths and 78% in GCSE English Language and 90% in English in GCSE English Literature.

Our continued drive for excellence and high achievement is reflected again this year in the achievements of some of our highest performing students.
