Welcome to Woolwich Polytechnic School for Boys

Thank you for taking the time to express your interest in us. 

We are a very special school that aims to serve the community, improve opportunity for our community and also reflect our community through our diverse and ambitious curriculum, as well as through our diverse staff and student bodies. We hope that you, too, feel that specialness when you visit us, a specialness that encompasses care and compassion, a genuine delight in children’s contributions and a drive towards “success for everyone”.

Mr T Lawrence - Head of School
