About

Oakhill School is based in Whalley and we pride ourselves on being a family. As a result, this is a school where the staff and the students have the time and space to enjoy each other's company. Parents and extended family are made welcome and encouraged to become part of our community from the very first time they visit.

Although the days are busy here at Oakhill, we will always find time to talk to you about your children. Oakhill School is a small school, which means we are able to provide an individual education to each and every pupil. Our pupils leave school with confidence, self-belief and maturity because they have been treated with respect.

Our values and beliefs are based on faith and this solid foundation forms good citizens who respect and serve others. We instil a strong sense of self-worth and a confidence that will stay for a lifetime.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
