At Oasis Academy Skinner Street we take great pride in our students, we aspire to create opportunities for them to flourish academically and to form their good character.

When our students leave us, we want them to be self-confident, to know how to build and sustain strong relationships, to have high aspirations and to have achieved their very best.
We want our students to embrace and contribute to the life of the school, both through their learning and by taking part in our extensive range of enrichment and leadership activities. We are proud of our partnership with parents and value their support to fulfil our vision.

We want every student to enjoy their time with us and to leave with fond memories that they will cherish forever. Our children leave us prepared for responsible adulthood taking with them principled values that will impact positively on their own lives, and those of others, to make for a better world.

Our vision for the school is summed up as Inspire, Challenge and Achieve.
