Oaks Park High School

I recently attended the parents' open evening at Oaks Park High School and was very pleased with the experience. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly, which made me feel comfortable and appreciated. I especially want to commend the hospitality team — they provided a lot of food, cakes, and drinks for free, which was a lovely touch. The head teacher was very open-minded and approachable, which I appreciated. While I did notice that the school could benefit from a bit more discipline to prevent some misbehaviour, I believe this is something that can improve over time. In terms of education, I am impressed with the high academic achievements of many students, including my daughter, who is very happy and proud to be part of the school. I believe that with continued effort, Oaks Park High School will reach even higher levels of excellence in the future.

A uncaring and money motivated school. The students are treated as second class citizens and don't get any support from the year team and are bullied by certain teachers and senior staff, If it involves them doing extra work or paperwork that may effect they bonuses. The Children don't matter here. Don't send your child to an unprofessional run school.

This school will pick and chooses who they want to help and support with mental issues ,while some pupils get loads of help sadly others don’t especially if they don’t like your child then sadly your child will not get the same amount of support This school has a very worry high rate of self harming going on with many students carrying blades on them, school would rather keep it quite then cause a Panic. pupils clearly need help and support but why some pupils get a lot of support sadly other don’t and that makes the pupils spiral even further with mental health issue to suicidal thoughts .The school just wants these kind of pupils out the school and say they have done everything to help ,Never trust what they say and chase it up and repeatedly check they have done what they have agree to do for your children as sadly this has not been the case for many pupils . If your child is not very liked by the high teachers they do not stand a chance as these teachers will constantly trigger your child and how to push them,Then when the pupils is triggered they will have them for bad behaviour In meeting take notes and get them to sign ,if you don’t they will make you feel things have not been said or that you missed understood and unfortunately liar ,so always get on record and a plan sign and check it’s being done as promised if you feel they are not doing everything they should be doing like the school policy says make some noise and get your voice heard until they do because if a pupil breaks school policy they follow it to get pupils out

If you want your child to do well in life sending them to this place will ensure that doesn’t happen. There are however a few really decent teachers that want to help your child do well High staff show no compassion to helping kids in need, and would go as far as not respecting the opinions of the really good teachers that want to help kids This school needs a good shake up as they are meant to play a part of shaping kids for the future not tearing them down .Can see why so many kids have behaviour issue,Time this school helped these children

I think this is a superb school. They challenge the kids & encourage them out of their comfort zone to ensure they become a well rounded adult. The teachers go above and beyond at every level. 10/10

A rubish school that likes to brush bulling and over stuff ext under the carpet. I as a student there expirence bulling and it's the worst thing they don't do anything to support the student or punish the studence doing it

Absolutely the worst place to work if you are from BAME. The idea of equality and fairness for all is far fetch.

I have been a previous student here myself and now my siblings go here. If I were to begin with the amount of problems and issues this school has I could be writing this review forever. The head teacher, is a racist disrespectful human being who lacks empathy for their staff and students mental and physical well being. The standards of the school is very poor they have ridiculous expectations for the kids, the amount of bullying that has resulted in students taking their life as well as harming themselves is genuinely concerning. I was extremely concerned for my siblings safety in this school after hearing the amount of things they witness and go through on a day to day basis from teachers. They have no regards or proper measures put in place to prevent bullying. They do not care about kids, all their focus is on out on making the school look good in the borough. Many great teachers have left due to bad pay, being overworked and just generally bad treatment.

A lot of bullying at break or lunch you will always see someone fighting I use to go their and still am because their an no schools available

This is a problem school with problem teachers! Don’t send your child here, so many people enrol their kids then end up pulling them out because for as great as they look on paper as a school, staff are rude and difficult to deal it’s staff fabricate stories because they feel like it (and never give you an explanation for doing it) accuse parents of things then refuse to apologise or retract their statements when proved wrong. Upon doing some social media research I found out 3 children have been pulled out because of the same member of staff with severe comprehension issues and is extremely rude to parents that is also my main problem. As a politician for a party that has a huge input in state education this school seriously concerns me but for obvious reasons this school is on my radar as well as the local authority, we have many good schools in the Sutton burrough please save yourself pulling your child out.

Want your child to feel safe in school don't send them here my 12 year old granddaughter was set upon by 4 girls in Oaks Park uniform it was videoed and put on social media school informed only action taken the scum who beat her and those who videoed it are expelled for a week they will be let back to terrorise your child the school have 3 seperate videos of this horrific attack SERIOUS LACK OF SAFEGUARDING at Oaks Park High School Carshalton with some awful disgusting pupils

just no pls i don't recommend
