Due to the predicted hot weather, the wearing of blazers will be optional for students this week. All other uniform expectations remain the same. Blazers will only be optional from Monday, 4 September, until the end of Friday, 8 September. From Monday, 11 September, the usual uniform expectations will return and the wearing of blazers will no longer be optional.
Congratulations to Oathall students who are celebrating excellent GCSE results. Students have seen impressive outcomes across all areas of the curriculum and results are significantly improved on 2019 results. (The last comparable set of GCSE data.)
In English, 83% of students achieved a grade 4 or above whilst in mathematics 80% of students achieved a grade 4 or higher. In science, 80% of students achieved 2 good science GCSE passes.
There were some exceptional individual performances with more than 17% of the cohort achieving 7 or more passes at grades 7, 8 or 9. Moreover, 31% of all grades awarded were 7 or higher with 80% of grades awarded at 4+ (nationally 68%).
Students of all abilities have excelled and achieved results of which they should be very proud. It is clear that their progress and attainment is significantly positive.
Headteacher, Edward Rodriguez said,
“I am delighted to see how our students have performed in their GCSEs. They have faced and met the challenges and performed well over the entire range of subjects. They deserve their successes today.”
We are delighted to introduce the new 2023-2024 School Captain team.
This year’s successful students were chosen following a rigorous selection process involving a whole school vote, submission of letters of application as well as being interviewed by Mr Rodriguez and Miss Froud.
Becoming a senior student leader is a fantastic achievement, and we have every confidence that this group of mature and confident individuals will do a great job in the coming year.
Our rescheduled Community day takes place on Thursday, 20 July 2023.
Students are invited to wear non-school uniform and a suggested donation of £2 is to be paid on parentpay for our house charities.
We strongly recommend that students come in with hats and sunscreen as it looks to be a sunny day.
Students need to bring in equipment as normal for periods 1, 2 and 3.
This assembly celebrates all the hard work and achievements from this half term.
Success in no accident!
Once again, the Oathall Performance Faculty have a fabulous school production of ‘We Will Rock You’ lined up for the next academic year.
Students are invited to sign up to take part in the auditions on 11 July and 12 July, from 3:10pm to 4:30pm. Sign-up forms are now available in the Dance Studio.
Good luck.
This assembly celebrates all the hard work and achievements from this half term.
