History of Fernwood School

Though Fernwood School existed prior, the institution converted to academy status on May 1, 2011. It was also around this time that the Fernwood Academy Trust was established, which further solidified its status as one of the finest schools in Nottingham. Over time, Fernwood School continued to grow, becoming one of Nottingham's biggest schools. In 2018, the school gained further funding which then allowed it to expand its student body to add 450 more enrollees. Today, it's one of the very few academic institutions in Nottinghamshire to have as many as 1,000 students.


What is Fernwood School's Campus Like?

Fernwood School is located on Goodwood Road in Wollaton, one of Nottingham's central neighborhoods. It boasts a massive campus with state-of-the-art facilities, further proving its prominence within the city's scholastic scene. Thanks to how big it is, the school can afford to have a full-blown gymnasium, theater for dramatic arts, studios for art classes, and well-equipped laboratories. Out of all the schools in Nottingham, it's safe to say that Fernwood School has the most complete campus. The only difference here is that it barely has any historic buildings, which the other academic institutions have.

From what started as a fairly small school in Nottingham, Fernwood School now has one of the biggest student bodies in the city. Today, the school welcomes over 1,000 students per year, including both new enrollees and those returning who have yet to graduate.

When you break down its student demographics, you'll find that 42% of them are White, 25% of them are Asian, 12% of them are Multiracial, 4% of them are Black, and another 4% of them are other ethnicities.


What is Fernwood School's Curriculum?

Fernwood School follows the National Curriculum of the UK, which means it teaches a set of subjects that are universally taught in the country. Hence, what your kids learn in this academic institution is the same as what other students learn in the rest of the UK. As for what these subjects are, they include Mathematics, Science, Languages, Art, Performing Arts, Humanities, and more. Though the school insists on academic excellence, it still encourages participation in extracurricular activities too.

Where is Fernwood School in Nottingham

As already mentioned, Fernwood School is located on Goodwood Road in Wollaton, Nottingham. Wollaton is among the city's most popular neighborhoods, thanks in large part to the various tourist attractions here. The famous Wollaton Hall and its estate park never fails to draw in locals and tourists alike, especially with its old-world grandeur. Though it tends to get a lot of visitors, the district remains largely residential, complete with some of the finest luxury homes in Nottingham. From townhouses to multi-room apartments, its real estate market is among the best in the city. Thus, it's fairly easy to find a place to stay near the school here.
