Oakhill is a nurturing school, which develops the whole child; we want every child to thrive and achieve academically and personally. We have a broad and balanced curriculum which is accessible to all. The curriculum exploits the use of wider opportunities to enrich children’s learning and to support their academic and personal development. Forest Schools, Now Press Play technology, visits and visitors are all used effectively to support learning, to enhance the curriculum and to engage children in order to raise aspirations.

We have a dedicated pupil and family support team who support children and their families to help to overcome barriers to learning. In addition to this, staff use emotion coaching to help children to self- regulate their emotional and behavioral well-being.
