This school has over 65% PP pupils and their progress score when it returns will be outstanding. There aren’t many schools, if any, with this level of PP getting these outcomes. Well done to the entire team! @OasisSouthBank is definitely the jewel in Oasis’ crown and their methods should be replicated across the MAT!
We are celebrating our best ever GCSE results today!

Hugely proud of @OasisSouthBank Year 11 cohort achieving our best GCSE results ever! 69% 5+ Eng & Maths, and 97% of students recieving 4+ in English! We're pushing to prove it's possible with all students, and our class of 2026 have paved the way!

Really thoughtful article! The precision required to shift and maintain behaviour in schools can't be underestimated!

Everything we do, we do for our kids and families- but we are SO proud to have this recognition... Our whole staff team hugely deserve it; they truly are remarkable!
We are absolutely over the moon that last night we WON ‘Secondary School of the Year’ at the TES Awards. Our ever humble (and brilliant) Principal @RichardsonAnna was so sure we weren’t going to win, she didn’t have her shoes on at the time it was announced…!😂 What a night!👏💙

There are some real special schools on this list and a massive similarity between them: they all have an incredible attention to detail in building culture for staff, kids and community! Yes it's about outcomes but the schools below achieve so much more than that too!
It's progress 8 day! On the left, schools with over 30% pupil premium, ranked by the P8 of their pupil premium students. On the right, a chart showing the overall effect of increasing PP numbers on a school's P8. Firm takes are hard to make, but it's pretty striking.

A thoroughly enjoyable visit to @OasisSouthBank to observe their English department in action. The consistently high-quality pedagogy across all the classrooms was impressive. With over 60% of pupils coming from disadvantaged backgrounds, achieving a progress score of +1.5 in English is outstanding. Fuelled by a palpable sense of belief, energy, and ambition, there is a strong sense that even greater success lies ahead.

It's taken a village to raise a child, but if your village has an English department like ours, that child is going to get a bloody good deal! We are so proud of @bridiemcpherson and @VersatileVocab1 who are two of the most talented people in education without a doubt!

@VersatileVocab1 and I are delighted to be amoung these outstanding schools with +1.5 P8 for English. @OasisSouthBank English results are 12th best in the country! With a 65% FSM cohort, 120 students in the year and 95% EBACC, and a whole lot of dedicated and expert teachers.

Had a fantastic time visiting @trinitybrixton! It's a school that's on a fantastic journey, and the kids are super proud to belong there! Definitely a place that we can learn from!
Pastoral teams from Trinity visiting two brilliant schools this week in OASB and Orchard Park. @sylviashelly and @conor2212 are as good as it gets. I’m a big believer in this type of co-ordination between dif schools and trusts. Lots to learn from each other!

100%! It's much wider than a school based issue! We need to make sure children have a childhood, and not one dictated by social media and phones! Also, snake on Nokia is surely a national past time, right?!?
Don't fall for the media myth! Mobile phones aren't used by students in Oasis schools, or in any others that I know of. The problem is instead, what happens when a student leaves at the end of the day? That's why I tell parents 'Stick with the brick. The internet is a Wild West!'

What a phenomenal set of kids!
Hearty congratulations to our students from OA South Bank! What a fantastic set of results for James, Leah, Amalia, Carmen & Aditi! 26 Grade 9s between them! Well done all! #OCLResults #GCSEResultsDay2024 #OASB

What a day! Always full of emotions and I am so proud of our 2024 cohort who smashed it! So many will join us again to start OASB Sixth Form in September, with others finding brilliant places across London... They are wonderful young people!

Agree with lots of this! Currently, the SEN system is inequitable, we need to level the playing field and focus on impact driven approaches!
There has to be 'a level of attention on the SEND system that we haven’t had in 10 years': @TomRees_77 and other MAT leaders say the new government must fix the #SEND system as a ‘priority’ tes.com/magazine/news/genera…

The do-now for me is an essential technique for maximising teaching time. However the effectiveness of do-nows can vary. Here are 5 don’ts of do-nows: 🧵
