VISION, VALUES AND MISSION

Our Vision: Oakhill School is a happy, vibrant and dynamic

place for learning, where children flourish in an environment

that celebrates diversity, rewards creativity, embraces

discipline and produces academic excellence. Oakhill seeks

to provide a broad, balanced education that is modern and

relevant to our times and integrates the academic, cultural,

social, physical and spiritual components necessary for a

young person's development.

Our Values: The School recognizes the individuality of each

child and provides a framework in which freedom and

discipline sit comfortably with each other. Children are

encouraged to think independently and respect one

another's view point. This approach builds confidence,

strength of character, self discipline and instills a desirable

value system and moral code that enables children to make

decisions and take responsibility for their actions. The

curriculum teaches our students to respect religious

differences and allows parents to set the tone for a child's

spiritual development. Oakhill students should leave with

both life skills and the skills for life, ready to continue their

journey with confidence.

Our Mission: Preparing students for life by encouraging them

to think for themselves and take responsibility for the

consequences of their decisions, for themselves, for others

and for the environment.

2. RESPONSIBILITIES

2.1. Educators at the school subscribe to the

school's code of Conduct and undertake [inter

alia] to:

• Be punctual, well prepared and professional in

their approach to education.

• Manage learner performance effectively and

motivate learners to achieve realistic and

meaningful personal goals.

• Be sensitive to the needs of their learners and

to address learning difficulties in a positive

manner

• Praise, encourage, recognise and reward

learners who strive to achieve

• Create a classroom climate which is based on a

learning partnership which makes education

both relevant and stimulating

• Set a positive example for their learners

• Administer discipline correctively and with

dignity when necessary.

2.2. Our school prides itself on having good relations

with the school's community, its pupils and their

parents. While parents should expect the school

and its educators to provide the best education

possible with the available resources, parents

should also accept responsibility for helping the

school to achieve this goal.

Parents enrol their children at the school subject to their

acceptance of the school rules and other conditions of

enrolment. Parents also have the responsibility to (at least):

• Actively support the efforts of the school and its

educators to teach their children

• Involve themselves to the fullest possible extent in

school activities

• Make positive suggestions and contributions to

improve the school's education process and the

learning environment

• Support the disciplinary structures and procedures of

the school, and the reasonable efforts by the school to

apply discipline effectively and fairly

• Encourage their children to participate fully in school

and extra-mural activities

• Participate in the learning process and assist their

children with homework, provide encouragement,

check results and communicate freely with the school

• Ensure that pupils attend school regularly and ensure

attendance at all compulsory functions and activities,

and that punctuality is practised.

In terms of the SA Constitution, every pupil has the right to

education. The school strives to provide the educational

opportunities that its pupils and the community deserve.

Pupils themselves, however, must recognise that they have a

responsibility to their parents, the school, their educators,

their fellow pupils and themselves.

VISION, VALUES AND MISSION

Our Vision: Oakhill School is a happy, vibrant and dynamic

place for learning, where children flourish in an environment

that celebrates diversity, rewards creativity, embraces

discipline and produces academic excellence. Oakhill seeks

to provide a broad, balanced education that is modern and

relevant to our times and integrates the academic, cultural,

social, physical and spiritual components necessary for a

young person's development.

Our Values: The School recognizes the individuality of each

child and provides a framework in which freedom and

discipline sit comfortably with each other. Children are

encouraged to think independently and respect one

another's view point. This approach builds confidence,

strength of character, self discipline and instills a desirable

value system and moral code that enables children to make

decisions and take responsibility for their actions. The

curriculum teaches our students to respect religious

differences and allows parents to set the tone for a child's

spiritual development. Oakhill students should leave with

both life skills and the skills for life, ready to continue their

journey with confidence.

Our Mission: Preparing students for life by encouraging them

to think for themselves and take responsibility for the

consequences of their decisions, for themselves, for others

and for the environment.
