Woodfield School is a special school located in Kingsbury, London.

Woodfield School caters for pupils aged 11–19 with a range of special educational needs.

Woodfield caters for students who have moderate learning difficulties together with a range of other needs. Two thirds of the students are boys. Increasingly, students are admitted with more complex needs. The number with autistic spectral disorders(ASD) has increased since 2005 and one quarter of all students are now in this group. A further quarter have behaviour, emotional and social difficulties (BESD). Nearly half have English as an additional language (EAL), with Gujerati, Urdu and Somali being the three main languages spoken other than English. Nearly half the students are entitled to free school meals, and the number of lone parent families is high.

The school is a member of a local Education Action Zone (EAZ). In July 2009, the school was granted specialist school status in sport.

A new sixth form building opened in February 2008.
