Score breakdown
6 axes, each scored 0–100 on a national absolute scale. As at 2025.
ERO review not in our dataset
We don't yet have a parsed ERO composite for Woodlands Full Primary School, so the ERO axis below uses the national-average ERO score (75/100) as a placeholder. The composite shown above incorporates that estimate. When we ingest a real ERO review for this school, the score will refresh and may move materially in either direction.
If you've spotted a recent ERO report we've missed, let us know — every flagged report gets re-ingested on the next refresh.
