Oakham School
At Oakham we are proud to offer a truly staggering range of experiences, activities and opportunities. Learning is at the heart of everything we do, yet our focus goes far beyond just encouraging our students to achieve outstanding results in their IB Diploma or A-level examinations. Our genuinely holistic approach to education means that students leave Oakham as effective and independent learners, well equipped with the confidence, skills and habits of mind to thrive beyond Oakham.
"This is a clear-eyed, energetic, forward-thinking school" The Good Schools Guide
Oakham is an exceptionally caring and vibrant boarding community. Our House structure ensures we nurture all aspects of our pupils’ well-being during every stage of their Oakham journey. Expertly trained staff support our students, helping them to become resilient and responsible within a home-from-home environment.
Students also benefit from the School’s location in the heart of safe, rural England. The beautifully green campus is just a few minutes’ walk from Oakham’s historic town centre, whilst Oakham’s excellent road and rail links mean that London, Birmingham and Cambridge are all within easy reach.
