About us:

Oasis Academy Mayfield is a fantastic place to learn and work.  Our last Ofsted visit was in May 2016, where we were judged to be ‘Good’ in all areas, since then we believe that we have moved yet closer to our aim to become the exceptional school our community deserves.

We value strong relationships with our parents and carers, and know that through working closely together it is ultimately our young people who benefit.

Our mission is focused around entitling our students, staff and community to an exceptional education. In order to achieve this we have four simple priorities. 

• Excellent teaching

• Excellent outcomes

• Excellent student entitlement

• Excellent staff / parent / community entitlement

We place a high value on personal development and professional learning for our staff.   We invest heavily in supporting the growth of our team believing that if our young people are surrounded by caring, committed and talented staff that they will be best placed to achieve remarkable success.  Being part of Oasis a Multi Academy Trust, which has 2 secondary schools in Southampton, and a further 16 nationally, offers many opportunities for collaboration and professional learning; we are a family and work closely together to ensure that we deliver exceptional education at the heart of our local communities.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
