Oakfield is a nurturing, diverse co-educational prep school, founded in 1887 in the heart of Dulwich, which blends a modern curriculum with strong pastoral values. It is committed to supporting every child to be the absolute best that they can be and helping them find the right senior school for them at 11+.
The school site of nearly three acres allows plenty of space for play and games and we enjoy strong regional and national success in both sport and drama. We offer specialist teaching in Spanish, music and art and have taught philosophy for children for many years.
We offer full wraparound care and there are more than 40 after-school clubs available to children in Upper Foundation and above. These include Mandarin, Karate, Music Tech and Fencing among many others.
We are a non-selective school but we conduct observations to ensure Oakfield will be the best environment for your child. Entry to the 2+ Nursery is by observation. Once accepted, the child will progress automatically into the Foundation Years (subject to the admissions policy) and Main School. Entry at 3+ and 4+ is also by observation. Entry at 7+ follows an assessment and observation in a class setting.
Prospective parents – and children – would be very welcome to join one of our Open Mornings or arrange a private tour with our registrar.
