The Willows Primary School is located in Woodhouse Park, near Wythenshawe, Manchester and has almost five hundred children aged between 3 and 12.

The school prides itself on its rights respecting ethos, providing support for pupils with additional needs and working alongside parents to enable the children to achieve their best potential

'Building resilience, ambition and respect'.

The Willows Primary School is part of the Children of Success Schools Trust (COSST) along with Haveley Hey Primary School and The Bridge playgroup community provision. We believe in learning through partnerships and are part of a variety of networks both in Wythenshawe and beyond.

The Willows values the diversity of our community and embraces the contribution of every individual. We aim to develop our children as citizens who will make a positive contribution now and in the future. We believe the children's learning is enriched by their community both inside and outside of school. Families are actively encouraged to participate in school life.  

Community links are mutually beneficial and we actively support local businesses and organisations. Our children's education is enhanced through partnerships with outside agencies such as Manchester Airport, The Lifestyle Centre, The Forum and we have strong links and relationships with local High Schools.

At The Willows we aim to:

• Provide stimulating challenging learning experiences through a broad and balanced curriculum designed to meet the needs and talents of all.
• Create a secure, happy atmosphere where we can all work effectively, developing responsibility and independence.
• Ensure a safe environment which is rich, varied and stimulating to develop learning through work and play.
• Value the parent/carers and community of the school as genuine partners in the education process.
• Develop respect for ourselves and other and a society as a whole.
