Woodford

Woodford is a charming suburban area in the PL7 postcode district of the City of Plymouth, in England’s South West. Quiet and community-minded, it sits within a city that values strong local institutions—among them Hele’s School, formerly Plympton Grammar School. This co‑educational secondary school and sixth form, located in Plympton, Plymouth, serves pupils aged 11 to 18 as a comprehensive within the Westcountry Schools Trust (WeST). With around 1,350 students on roll and roughly 210 in the sixth form, Hele’s operates an eight‑form entry system and publishes an admission number of 240 per year group. For families and visitors alike, Woodford’s setting in the broader Plymouth area offers access to well‑established educational options and the reassuring rhythm of suburban life in the South West.
