At Oakland Academy we strive to provide an educational environment that is deeply rooted in the fruit of love. With a mission to provide quality education, whilst considering the holistic development of our learners, we provide smaller classrooms and a hands-on educational approach.

Being an Independent Christian school in the heart of Monte Vista, we can provide our learners with a warm and rewarding approach to teaching and learning. Instilling traditional values and encouraging learners to be the best versions of themselves is our prime goal.

Our well-taught CAPS curriculum is specifically tailored to meet the individual learning requirements and encourage learners to develop their academics curiosity. We also offer weekly intervention classes to build onto foundations and revise challenging topics. Like the Oak tree, that we proudly wear, we are strong, powerful, able to endure and promote honesty amongst our learners and community.

We believe in the teachings of 1 Timothy 6v18 where we encourage to do good, be rich in good works, be generous and ready to share. At Oakland Academy we put this to practice by enriching the lives of many through our numerous outreach / charity initiatives.

 We listen, we care and most importantly we work together to create a happy learning community. We strive to develop resilient and confident world leaders and shakers who relish in the opportunities and challenges that come their way.

What our parents say about us...

"My son, Richard Grace started at Oakland Academy at the end of 2020. We truly believe our family had to experience other schools first in order to truly experience and appreciate Oakland Academy. The small classes at Oakland Academy ensures excellent involvement between my son and his teachers. The teachers are nurturing and loving while providing the structure and guidance my son needs to grow. Following the school's Christian values, my son feels loved, has all the support and is encouraged by all staff to continue to be the best he can be. As parents, the care and trust we received from the management and staff have totally exceeded any expectation we had. The level of feedback and overall communication by Oakland Academy is so impressive. As a family we can think of no better place to send our son and would highly recommend Oakland Academy to any future pupil."
