Inspiring a love of learning

At Oldbury School, we understand that happy, engaged children learn better. For us, Inspiring a love of learning isn’t just a strapline, it is the foundation of our approach to education.

The unique attributes that come from being a small rural school, from the extensive grounds to the caring environment, underpin a creative approach to education that releases the potential of our children.

Have a try - out at Oldbury!

If you're interested in the possibility of your child attending Oldbury School, you are very welcome to come and try - out Oldbury School for the morning. On Fridays we offer parents and pre-school children the chance to 'stay and play / learn' by joining us for our Forest Friday sessions with Class 1 children. Please contact Debbie at the School office (01454 414297) if you are interested.
