Catering for ages 11–18, the school hosts approximately 1200 students (of which just over 200 are in the VI form (16-18)) each year. The school recently completed the building of a new VI form, Dining Canteen and drama studio. The school is a specialist visual and performing Arts College. The school now has Microsoft partnership status. The school reached the national finals of the mock trial competition in 2003 and 2006, came second in 2004 and won it in 2005.
[edit] Sixth form
In early 2006, they completed the build of their new Sixth Form centre and restaurant, in what is now a modern building, with the VI centre located upstairs. The school has finished the process of developing a new textiles room as well as a music recording studio and a new changing room for physical education. They are working on having interactive white-boards or projectors in every classroom.
In 2007, 70% of students achieved 5 GCSEs grades A*-C, making Wood Green the third most successful secondary school in Oxfordshire.
In 2010, after the introduction of the new A* grade available at A level, 12 sixth form students achieved 3 or more A*/A grades.
