Oak Hill First School

Oak Hill First School opened in September 2001 to serve the well-established districts of Lodge Park and Greenlands.

The school is a large 3 form entry first school with accommodation for 450 pupils (aged 4-9) plus 78 part time places for Nursery children (aged 3-4). Our school is subdivided into 3 phases. The Principal, Vice Principal and 2 Assistant Heads make up our effective Leadership and Management team. The Vice Principal and two Assistant Heads are each responsible for a key stage.

Staff and pupils enjoy working in an attractive and well-resourced and well maintained environment. The school offers good sized classrooms, a large hall with a stage, a music/drama area, a library, large practical areas including a pupil kitchen and the exclusive use of the Children’s Centre. The school has significantly invested and continues to maintain an extensive range of ICT hardware.

About our school experience

We can offer a days experience in one of our year groups (Nursery to Year 4). If you are particularly interested in a career in Early Years, Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2 we will try to accommodate you.

During your day, you will have the opportunity to shadow one of our teachers. You will be able to see what a teaching day entails, support children with their learning as well as experience social times at break and lunch.
