A Message From the Principal
A very warm welcome to Oasis Academy Lord’s Hill.
We are delighted that you’re considering our academy for your child(ren). We are incredibly proud of our students and the confident, well rounded young people we see them blossom into throughout their time with us, and we hope that this prospectus reflects that and what we can offer you. As an academy we believe in 'Excellence by all, for all' which you will see and feel everywhere. We have high expectations of everybody who joins Oasis Academy Lord's Hill and demand that we are all the best versions of ourselves each day.
When you become part of Oasis Academy Lord’s Hill you are joining more than a school; you are joining a family. Every member of staff is an advocate of this and of our values.
We care deeply about creating an innovative, exciting and inclusive learning environment centred around the Oasis ethos:
- A passion to include everyone
- A desire to treat everyone equally, respecting differences
- A commitment to healthy and open relationships
- A deep sense of hope that things can change and be transformed
- A sense of perseverance to keep going for the long haul
When you walk through our academy you will get a real feel of our academy life. It is important to us that our students get the recognition they deserve. For this reason, we hold termly commendation assemblies (whether for academic achievement or a fantastic display of character) and ensure that our students have a platform where their voice can be heard through school councils and student leadership groups.
Every child should get the education they deserve, and the opportunity to reach their potential; no matter what their background or ability. Our teachers go above and beyond to support all needs, and tailor homework and lesson plans for all. We provide an ambitious curriculum ensuring that we actively encourage young people to take a full range of academic subjects. We also seek to develop the unique interests and talents of our young people and this helps our students understand how to maintain excellent physical and mental health.
When you see my colleagues and I at the academy gate, welcoming your children into our academy home or seeing them off safely, feel confident in the knowledge that we are here to serve our community and we appreciate taking the time to get to know you and your needs.
I look forward to meeting with you, welcoming you to our academy, and to another exciting, successful and purposeful academic year.
Simon Firth,
Interim Principal - Oasis Academy Lord’s Hill

Our Community
We offer opportunities for extended learning beyond the core Academy day. Our extended provision through our Hub team is at the centre of our community work. The team deliver a wide range of services which engage public, voluntary and business sectors in the establishment of a centre of education and lifelong learning. We aspire for the Academy to be at the heart of our local community, recognised by others for our clear understanding and support of local issues and awareness of community needs.
At Oasis we recognise that people are not two-dimensional beings; we are each a whole person with a broad range of aspirations and needs and these needs are interconnected. To truly help someone with their educational needs, it is vital to also be aware of their emotional needs, spiritual needs and economic needs.
As such, we believe in communities that are holistic, interconnected and totally inclusive. We call our model for these communities ‘Hub.’
Oasis Academy Lord's Hill is part of Oasis Community Hub: Lord's Hill. As well as the Academy, the Hub runs a number of services for the community. By ensuring that all these services are joined up and rooted in same ethos we want to see the entire community transformed for the better.
