Welcome to Oakwood Infant and Nursery School. We strive together to ensure that children are at the heart of our school, celebrating the fact that we aim to create a happy, purposeful and stimulating environment within which each individual will be able to achieve the highest possible standards of educational and personal development.

 

We not only aim to teach children to the highest educational standards but we teach them about life, friendships and how to treat others with respect. We encourage the children to carry themselves through life as kind and thoughtful people.

 

In school we use the language of ‘choice’ to encourage the children to make the right choices and we also encourage them to recognise how to try to put right any wrong choices made, through tolerance and forgiveness.

​

Our curriculum is broad, relevant, creative and progressive which engages children in an exciting and stimulating way. Staff work very hard to establish and maintain an effective partnership with parents throughout all year groups and classes. Our school is at the heart of our very

closed-knit community.

 

Thank you for taking the time to look at our website. As a school, we are pleased you are looking at or have chosen us to help and guide your child on their learning journey.

 

I hope this website will provide you with some of the information you will need, however please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.

 

I would be delighted to show you around our wonderful school and look forward to you becoming part of our happy, hardworking family.

 

Yours sincerely, 

Mrs K. Maguire-Egan, Head Teacher
