Oaklands Community Primary School

Welcome to our school

I am incredibly proud of our school family and love working in this community. Whilst having the advantages of a large school, I am constantly impressed by the small family feel in every classroom where every child is valued.

Our school motto: ‘We care, we learn, we succeed’ is at the heart of everything we do and this is reflected in our high achieving and happy school.

Our school has 14 mainstream classes and 2 specialist classes for children with autism (The Oaklands Centre).  Attainment has been consistently ‘good’ for the last five years. We have impressive facilities which include a cookery room, forest school, dedicated outdoor learning areas, trim trails and play areas, as well as extensive fields to enjoy throughout the year.

We have a highly skilled and committed team of staff who work with parents to strive for the very best for every child. We provide a broad curriculum with high expectations where everyone is encouraged and supported to achieve.

This website aims to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing up-to-date information for parents, pupils and the wider community. We hope you find the information you are looking for; please feel free to contact the school with any queries you may have.

SZapp is the system we use to communicate with our parents, and we ask that all parents sign up.

It is an easy way to keep up to date with everything school related, including:

• Absence notification
• After-school clubs
• Lunch menus
• Medication notification
• Parents’ evening bookings
• School trip information & permission forms
• School updates, newsletters & school events
• Term dates

Please see the tab under School Life for more information on accessing SZapp.
