THE PLACE TO BE GROW BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Our students learn to be the best versions of themselves, to be flexible, reflective and to grow as people from the age of three until the end of their school career.

During these years they are immersed in the Oak House values: honesty and integrity; self-respect and self-confidence; effort and resilience; intellectual curiosity, creativity and critical thinking; personal and social responsibility.

When they leave to go out into the world these important values are part of who they are. They have grown and developed as people who have learnt to work towards making the world a better place.

Early years

The learning environment for our Nursery and Reception pupils includes both the indoor and outdoors spaces, where they follow their interests and develop their understanding.

Learning through play teaches and encourages them to discover, investigate, question, analyse, collaborate, communicate and imagine, all in a wide range of contexts such as: construction play, small world play, sand, water, painting, drawing, modelling, imaginative play, music, stories, technology, physical play.

The forest offers an ideal outdoor environment for children to extend their learning amongst nature, where they learn to care for the natural world, for each other and themselves. In this healthy environment children explore the world around them, developing their skills, knowledge and natural curiosity.

Q & A WITH THE HEAD OF STUDIES

Good communication is an essential part of our educational project. In Early Years (3-5 years) the individual meetings with parents, the weekly school newsletter, the learning platform SEESAW, the child’s diary, and the Q&A sessions with the Head of Studies, all ensure a fluid and two-way communication between school, pupils and their families.   

TESTIMONIALS

“Oak House has been a great experience for our son.  He was one of the youngest when he started school and his teacher  followed him step by step in his integration. Since day one our son has felt supported by all the school staff. We believe, that Oak House in the Early Years found the right balance between free-flow, out-door activities, keeping the curiosity, promoting autonomy and discipline. All of this with a truly English language immersion environment. Great team, great job! Thank you!”-

  “I was gladly surprised to see how her teachers and supervisors have observed her in small but meaningful moments pointing out both important details of her daily life in school as well as milestones of her growth and development. It shows how the Early Years Program is able not only to motivate them and create a friendly learning environment (they even want to go to school on weekends) but also focus on each and every one of the children, understanding and adapting to their educational needs. Thank you”.

Oak House School - Building Futures

The oak tree symbolises Oak House School. The British essence which permeates our school is created by our English-speaking team of staff, who guarantee the successful implementation of our international programmes. The international staff work in close collaboration with our local teachers to build a strong team, working together to ensure that Oak House students develop an international mindset, a global vision and an intercultural understanding, thus opening doors to global opportunities.

A MULTI-LINGUAL PROGRAMME

Learning journey

In Early Years and Primary, Oak House School is certified as a British School in Spain by the British Council. In the Secondary department the school meets the requirements of the local education system, whilst maintaining a strong focus on English. We prepare our secondary students for Cambridge IGCSE and EDEXCEL GCSE exams and when they reach the Post 16 stage of education, students have the choice of following the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme fully in English, or the national Bachillerato programme in Catalunya. Preparation for Cambridge language exams at Advanced and Proficiency levels, is offered to all students and either DELF (French) or Goethe Institute (German) exams for those studying a fourth language.

GLOBAL CITIZENS

Oak House students are encouraged to extend their learning experiences and hence their intercultural understanding through extracurricular experiences such as, an environmental research programme run in collaboration with international universities, in destinations of environmental interest around the world. Many Oak House students choose to continue their educational journey in international universities. The university counselling staff provide both valuable guidance and application support.

better citizens,
better world

Students at Oak House School learn to contribute to, take responsibility for, and understand the global society in which they live and prepare for that of their future. These proactive citizens of the future are developed in a variety of ways, such as: supporting both local and international charities; community service projects undertaken by Secondary students, including running English classes for persons in need in the local community; the Personal, Social and Health Education programme and the Eco Committee, which run throughout the school – these are the seeds from which our global citizens grow.

Creativity

The arts are fundamental elements of a British education, which recognises the importance of self-expression through acting, drawing, painting, and musical performance. A creative mind, a creative approach to problem-solving, as well as the ability to speak in public and present their thoughts and findings to others, are all attributes which serve our students well both in their professional and personal futures and form part of their identity.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Experimentation and investigation form the basis of being a practical scientist at Oak House School. Early Years’ pupils learning about living things and their immediate environment; the primary pupils investigating forces and learning about the solar system; Secondary students learning about DNA and cell structure, programming and building robots; Post 16 students carrying out their own scientific research projects, with specialist technician support… these are all examples of the journey taken by the scientists of tomorrow.

APPLIED maths

Mathematics has to be understood and applied creatively in different contexts. This understanding begins in Early Years and Primary, aided by the extensive use of practical equipment, and leading to a deep understanding of mathematical concepts, rather than memorisation of formulas and operations.

Exploring Oracy

The ability to think critically and to engage in informed debates, are skills which are explicitly taught at Oak House School. To achieve our goals we organise and host Model United Nations (MUN) events, as well as attending numerous debating events and competitions at other international schools.

 

We recognise the value of including compulsory Drama lessons within our curriculum from Year 4 to the end of 2nd ESO (Year 9). Our older students can continue developing their drama skills by choosing Drama GCSE and IB Theatre Studies.

 

All of these opportunities to develop oracy skills, knowledge of the world and empathy with others, help our students to defend their beliefs and positions, whilst at the same time respecting different opinions and becoming rounded, balanced global citizens.

building teams

Families and teachers together form a team, and this solid home-school partnership allows our pupils to grow. Within school the “Houses” – Almond, Pine, Linden, Cypress – are the teams to which pupils in Year 1 to Year 7 belong. During the year there are numerous opportunities to gain house points, culminating in Prize Giving, where medals are awarded to students in the winning house.

Not only do we promote collaboration between children of the same age, but we also recognise the value of pupil role-models. Our primary students in Year 6 are trained to be peer tutors to children in Year 4 and our 3rd ESO (Year 10) students support the 1st ESO (Year 8) students as they adapt to life in Secondary. This Peer Tutor programme has clear benefits for both parties and provides each student with a set of useful skills for their personal life.

Our teaching team is made up of life-long learners, who are committed professionals. An extensive programme of professional development ensures that our teachers are updated in the latest developments in educational research, which impacts upon their professional practice.

In 1968 a small number of families planted the seed of a tree which continues to grow. As strong as an Oak, at Oak House School we continue to ensure that our students, the fruits of the tree, leave our care with a solid educational base, upon which they continue building their present and constructing their hopes and dreams for the future.
