Welcome to Oakbank school - a place where every student thrives, where our values of integrity, collaboration and excellence shine through in all that we do.

Our collective determination to make Oakbank a happier and higher performing school affirms our commitment to our values: integrity, collaboration and excellence. We believe in excellence for our students to give them the opportunities to have choices in their lives, empowering them to choose the future that they desire off the back of hard work. We believe in working together to ensure that our community supports one another and challenges one another to be the ‘best yet’ versions of ourselves, not because we have to improve, but because if we do, the potential is endless. We believe in the fidelity of our vision for students and staff, and strive to retain our moral compass when making decisions, to foster an open, inclusive and happy community at Oakbank.​
​

Oakbank is a school of potential that drives the betterment for all. The school is committed to a journey of transformation, where staff, students and parents are determined to improve the quality and experience of education for its community. We believe that every child deserves to not only access the full curriculum, but should thrive in their curriculums, developing academically, personally and holistically as a result of passionate and adaptive teaching, resulting in committed learning that secures successful outcomes. Our current phase of school improvement features our entire team, working together at pace to offer greater stability, more innovation and creativity. The aim is for greater consistency for all students, enabling them to manage their learning and themselves more effectively.​

We are incredibly proud of our wonderful school community. We have made great strides in recent times to become a highly successful school and we will not rest in our ambition of being the best that we possibly can be.
