Early Years Foundation Stage
At Oak Tree Primary School, our early years provision is underpinned by our core values of Kindness, Respect, Resilience, Responsibility, Aspire, and Be Yourself.

- Enable every child to thrive through kindness and support
- Prepare children for the future with responsibility and aspiration
- Foster a love of learning where children can be themselves
