Following Woodkirk gaining ‘Specialist Science Status', the school was briefly renamed Woodkirk High Specialist Science School from 2003 to 2011.

Woodkirk opened to students as Woodkirk Secondary School in September 1948.

It consists of the main hall, administration quarters, a number of small classrooms, gymnasium and the central Tower Block which housed the schools main departments: Mathematics, English, Science and Humanities.

By 1972 the school was expanding and saw the addition of the ROSLA Block for the new 5th year students, in line with the raising of school leaving age (the meaning of ROSLA).

In the early 1980s, the school's Yellow Block was completed to house the new English and Science departments on the lower two floors. Laboratories were separated to teach biology, chemistry, physics and astronomy. The upper floors house the relocated Maths and newly formed Modern Foreign Languages (MFL) departments.

In early 2003 the school gained "Specialist Science" status. Following this, the school was renamed Woodkirk High Specialist Science School and the school logo was adapted to include an atom and the Pi (π) symbol.

In September 2011 the school became an academy, joining Leodis Academies Trust and with a name change to Woodkirk Academy.
