Oaklands is a Catholic Voluntary (Aided) School taking in boys and girls from 11-18, which has been established by the Diocese of Portsmouth for the education of Catholic children who live within the former designated parish catchment area allocated to the school. In addition, Oaklands also takes in a number of children from other Christian denominations whose parents have specifically requested a catholic education at the School, provided that they satisfy the criteria laid down in the Governors’ Admissions Policy.
Oaklands has nearly 1300 students on roll, including a Sixth Form College of 180 students. It is a well established Comprehensive School, which is well supported by parents and highly respected in the community. Oaklands offers a full range of GCSE, AS and A2 Level courses. Students at all levels are provided with challenge and support as appropriate. The school’s success is rooted in a strong academic tradition.
The students are drawn from a very wide area extending from Hayling Island in the south to Petersfield in the north and from the Sussex border in the east to Denmead and Hambledon in the west. This means that, although Oaklands is situated within the Parish of the Sacred Heart, Waterlooville, the school also takes in students from other Parishes such as St. Michael and All Angels, Leigh Park; St. Edmund’s Horndean; St. Patrick’s Hayling Island and St. Joseph’s, Havant, as well as from a number of other Parishes outside the original catchment area, including St. Coleman’s, Cosham; Sacred Heart, Fareham and St, Laurence’s, Petersfield.
