Oakleigh House has been offering independent education to families in Swansea for over 100 years. Now part of a very successful global schools group Oakleigh House staff and pupils benefit from the opportunity to communicate with and work alongside schools from across the world, sharing best practice and educational thinking in over 100 schools across 5 continents. The school is rightly proud of its diverse nature and this year, has welcomed several new families relocating to the area who add to their international pupil cohort.
At Oakleigh House, our Year 5 and Year 6 students embark on an exciting adventure - a multi-day residential trip in the UK! As the senior pupils of the school, this experience offers them the chance to step up, embrace responsibility, and shine as independent young individuals. Packed with fun, team-building activities, and opportunities to grow, this trip is a highlight of the school year. It's not just about making memories, but about developing leadership, teamwork, and confidence in an environment they'll never forget. Our students eagerly await this journey every year!
Having received an award for excellence in its recent Estyn inspection, the school's Personalised Learning approach benefits all pupils. Inspectors judged the quality of support for children requiring additional help with their learning as being outstanding. Equally, the school has received the Challenge Award accreditation from NACE, the National Association for Able Children in Education. The award recognises the school's provision for its most able and talented pupils. Pupils are encouraged to develop a growth mindset with no limit to what they can achieve, striving always to be the best that they can be. All pupils benefit from the teaching of specialist staff in Music, Drama, Spanish and a range of sporting disciplines. Sport plays an important part in the daily life of the pupils with the netball, hockey and athletics teams regularly achieving county success.
Outside the classroom, there are more than 20 clubs and activities available to pupils each week and many opportunities for pupils of all ages to take responsibility for themselves and others and develop valuable leadership skills. The school has met the standard for UNICEF's Rights Respecting Schools Gold Award. The staff nurture the emotional wellbeing of the learners and the traditional values of manners and respect are fundamental to the ethos of the school. All of these aspects support the development of the pupils' character, confidence and resilience meaning that pupils leave Oakleigh House confident, well-rounded individuals with the skills for lifelong learning in the 21st century.
