Without doubt, everyone expects a school like ours to provide a superlative academic education – we do. At The Oratory we believe that there is an important difference between being fully qualified and fully human.
Groundedness, Wholeness and Kindness are created by the right ethos and environment. This is what helps you build habits that will serve you for life and allow you to be of service to others. These are the sort of qualities that will, without doubt, be to the fore in all your achievements: in your life’s critical encounters, your choice of career and your progress through the world. The sort of talents and values that make you a good human being...
We know that choosing the right school for your child can often be confusing and time consuming, so we try to make the process here at The Oratory as enjoyable and straightforward as possible.
Oratory Open Mornings offer a great opportunity to explore our facilities in their beautiful surroundings and meet with our staff and pupils in person.
The Oratory is a vibrant day and boarding community. We call ourselves a family and we mean it. The warmth and support of the school enables pupils to develop strong self-belief and resilience that will remain with them throughout their life.
The Catholic Faith and the two chapels are central to the school’s life, ethos and identity. Newman’s vision of an education for the whole person through individual care has always involved mind, body, and soul.
A wide array of co-curricular opportunities allows each individual to find an arena in which they can flourish and excel. The joy and confidence that success brings leads to greater determination and resilience when facing challenges in the classroom and in life.
