Here at Oaks Primary Academy, we continue to provide outstanding education to all children. Every child is unique and has the opportunity to develop and grow as a learner.

Our curriculum offer is broad, balanced and bespoke. By delivering the National Curriculum through the lens of the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme, we aim to foster a love of learning where every individual has a voice, choice and ownership over their learning journey. We champion outside of the box thinking and empower our pupils to take action alongside their learning wherever possible. Our inquiry led approach presents children with problems faced in society (past and present), an understanding of perspective and the opportunity to pursue their passions. We further enhance our curriculum with a co-curricular provision which presents the children with a plethora of enriching avenues in which to deepen their learning.

OPA learners, of any age, will understand how they are connected to the world in order to take action to improve their own lives, and the lives of local and global communities. The curriculum is built upon prior learning, and is designed to be challenging, interesting and motivational to all pupils.
