Wood Green School is a secondary school located in Oxfordshire, England which serves the traditional blanket making and historic town of Witney and its surrounding villages. It was established in 1953 as Witney's secondary modern school before becoming a comprehensive school in 1968. The Witney Grammar School became the Henry Box School, signifying its change of status to comprehensive school, one year later. In the School's most recent inspection (October 2013), it was judged by Ofsted to be inadequate.
