An Exceptional Learning Experience
At OPGS we believe in high quality teaching and learning that engages and challenges each and every student and excellent standards of behaviour to create a positive learning climate. We offer a wide range of opportunities to extend learning beyond the classroom.
Meet Our Head Teacher
As Head Teacher of Oakwood Park Grammar School I am deeply proud of our school. Our mission statement “An Exceptional Learning Experience” captures what I and my staff seek every day for your son or daughter; the opportunity to be exceptional in everything they do, with the support of teachers and support staff. High quality teaching, excellent pastoral care and an impressive range of extra-curricular opportunities are what we offer for all our students.
Please visit our school to see for yourself.
