Welcome To The Oakridge Community Primary School

Oakridge Primary School is situated in a most beautiful part of the country, in the village of Hinderwell located as it is between the North Yorkshire Moors and the North Sea coast.

Our school is a designated Community Primary School, including a nursery and so caters for children between the ages of 3 and 11. The children are currently organised into two classes - a nursery to year 2 class for 3 – 7 year olds called Seahorse class and a junior classes, one for 7 – 11 year olds called Dolphin class.

The first years in the primary school are the most important. Here the foundations of your child's education are laid, on which their future life is built. We believe we have an enormous responsibility to help every child succeed. We are enthusiastic, caring and seek every way we can to help your child achieve their full potential. We also believe that your contribution to your child’s education is vital. We view the relationship between home and school as a partnership, in which parents and teachers work together closely to ensure that every child receives continual support and encouragement.

Our 'open-door' policy means we value your contribution and welcome you into school at any time to see what is happening, to work alongside a teacher, work with a group of children or accompany us on an outing. We believe that, with your interest and support, the time your son or daughter spends here will be a happy and successful experience.
