OPEN MORNINGS

Our Open Mornings are the ideal way to find out about the School and what we can offer your son or daughter. You will be shown around with a group of other families, have an opportunity to speak to senior staff and to pupils and ask as many questions as you wish. You will be given a guided tour by pupils and discuss what you have seen over a light lunch.

Nigel Paddock, Registrar and our Admissions Team will be pleased to help you. Call us on +44 (0)1572 758758 and speak to Emma, Rachel or Jackie or email [email protected]

Oakham School Catchment Area Map

This school is independently managed and its admission criteria may be selective. There is no set catchment area as pupils are admitted from a wide variety of postcodes and, in the case of boarding schools, from outside the UK. Contact the school directly or visit their website for more information on Admissions Policy and Procedures.
