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.
