At Oakwood, we teach a weekly Character Development lesson, centred around aspects of a particular virtue which then permeates all areas of school life that half term. Our individual tutorial system serves to personalise this growth in virtue, by helping each child individually to put their own resolution into practice and so, systematically grow towards becoming a better person.
By working with parents, we aim to empower children to become competent, responsible and considerate young people, who are happy to be themselves; we consider education in virtue to be part of a first class education.
The development of the Four Core Human Qualities through which character is forged are pivotal to our ethos.
