The school's focus on wellbeing and mental health is really important to us as a family. *(Mar 2022)* - **4/5** — Some positives and areas for improvement: We've had a good experience at Woodlands, but there are a few areas where the school could improve. Our child's class does a lot of group work, which can be challenging for them, and I wish there were more opportunities for one-to-one support. However, the teachers are generally very supportive and the school's values are a great fit for our family. *(Nov 2021)* - **4/5** — A great school for our child's needs: We sent our child to Woodlands when they needed specialist support, and I'm so impressed with the tailored approach they received. The staff were always available to answer our questions and work with us to meet our child's needs. *(Jun 2020)* ## Other schools in Birmingham - [Ninestiles, an Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/ninestiles-an-academy-12144) — 3.5/5 (37 reviews) - [Small Heath Leadership Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/small-heath-leadership-academy-18690) — 1.5/5 (32 reviews) - [Eden Girls' Leadership Academy, Birmingham](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/eden-girls-leadership-academy-birmingham-20844) — 1.3/5 (25 reviews) - [Ark Victoria Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/ark-victoria-academy-16470) — 1.7/5 (24 reviews) - [Archbishop Ilsley Catholic School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/archbishop-ilsley-catholic-school-20043) — 1.5/5 (21 reviews) - [Cockshut Hill School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/birmingham/cockshut-hill-school-17012) — 1.6/5 (20 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
