A very warm welcome to Oak Lodge Primary School and Nursery.

At Oak Lodge, we are incredibly proud of our vibrant, nurturing and inclusive school community. Our aim is simple yet ambitious: to provide every child with the best possible start to their educational journey, inspiring a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.

Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to excite and engage children, whilst also promoting strong academic achievement across all subject areas. We offer a broad and balanced curriculum that is rich in opportunities, ensuring learning is purposeful, deep and memorable. Through a wide range of engaging and fun experiences, we aim to spark curiosity, foster creativity and develop critical thinking in all our pupils.

Beyond academic success, we place great importance on the social and emotional development of our children. At Oak Lodge, we are committed to nurturing the whole child — helping them to grow in confidence, build resilience and develop the skills they need to become respectful, responsible citizens of the future.

Our setting is enhanced by our outstanding outdoor environment, which includes a woodland area, spacious field, pond and play areas — as well as our much-loved school chickens! These facilities provide wonderful opportunities for hands-on, outdoor learning, which is integral to our approach and brings the curriculum to life in meaningful ways. We also offer a wide range of clubs, sports and activities to help children explore their interests and develop new skills beyond the classroom.

We see ourselves as a true community school and the strength of our partnerships with parents, carers and the wider community is central to our success. We believe that when we work together, we can provide the richest educational experiences and best outcomes for our children. In return, we actively encourage our pupils to contribute to their community and to understand the importance and joy of giving back.

At Oak Lodge, we celebrate every child's achievements — academic, creative, sporting or personal — and we support each pupil to achieve their full potential. We are deeply committed to creating a school environment where children feel happy, safe and valued and where they are empowered to succeed.

We truly believe you will feel the warmth and friendliness of our school the moment you walk through the door. If you are considering joining our school community, we would be delighted to welcome you for a visit. Please get in touch with the school office to arrange a time to come and see what makes Oak Lodge such a special place to learn and grow.

Warm regards
