"Excellent School"

We have been with The Oaks for 4 years now and have never been disappointed. The teachers are amazing, the facilities are excellent and the values they instil in our children are exactly what we want for them. We've seen our child's confidence grow and their learning progress so much. We couldn't recommend this school enough.

"Good but needs improvement"

We're generally happy with The Oaks, but we do think they could do more to involve parents in the curriculum and learning process. The teachers are great, but sometimes it feels like they're not communicating enough with us about our child's progress. Still, we've seen our child learn a lot and make friends, so we'll keep an open mind and give them another year.

"Great Support for SEN"

My child attended The Oaks a few years ago and we were really impressed with the support they gave them. The staff were always available to talk and the facilities were great. I do think the school could improve on communication with parents, but overall we were very happy with our child's experience.
