Welcome from the Headteacher

Thank you for showing an interest in our school. As a proud member of the Beckfoot Trust, we share the same mission, ethos and values as the other schools in our trust. As a Beckfoot Trust school, we are privileged to serve our local community yet be influenced by the ‘best that has been thought and said’ nationally. We are a school on a journey, and we are determined to continue to rapidly improve and to listen to feedback so that we do. We are given significant support from the Beckfoot Trust central team in order to drive forward our school improvement strategy.

We understand that for parents, your child is your most important interest; we want to work with you to support them in their educational journey. For prospective employees, we are fully signed up to our trust’s people first charter. Your professional growth and wellbeing at work matters to us.

All the schools in the Beckfoot Trust share one mission of: Creating Remarkable Schools Where No Child is Left Behind.

Each school has a unique sentence that reflects the mission and is what we want our legacy to be. Ours is: Beckfoot Oakbank School ensured that every child succeeded in their education, had a great career and enjoyed life.

We are all striving to achieve the trust mission and our school sentence and to live our values everyday. All our trust schools are values-driven and express their ethos in slightly different ways. At our school, our values are the same as the trust and the founding schools:

Our Values

Enjoy – We enjoy belonging to Beckfoot Oakbank
Learn - We are all here to learn
Succeed – We are determined to succeed
