Character Education

What is Character and why is it important?

The choices you make when no one is looking

Character is who you are. It is what makes you... you. It is the choices you make when no one is looking. It is your values and your virtues.

Character is firmly embedded into all elements of life at Oakway Academy, including being closely aligned to our core values of Passion, Responsibility, Independence, Determination and Enjoyment.
 
 

Nothing Left to Chance

At Oakway Academy we insist that all children engage in a comprehensive character programme that develops them into the best versions of themselves, provides them with choices, and prepares them fully for the challenges they will face in the future.

Slips are entered into a weekly prize draw for pupils to win a small prize, The more qualities you show, the more chances you have to win!
