In partnership with parents, our School aims, through a Christ-centred curriculum, to develop young men and women of faith, good character, strong intellect and generous spirit, able to move confidently into the world and to use their talents and gifts to lead and serve others.
The London Oratory School comprises of three main internal structures, namely, the Junior House, the Senior School, and the Sixth Form. Pupils aged 7 to 11 are admitted to Junior House to follow a specialist instrumental and choral education. The vast majority of our pupils join us at 11-16, making up the Senior School. Girls are admitted to the Sixth Form, joining with the boys who progress into the Sixth Form either from the Senior School, or join us as external applicants from other schools. Overall, there are around 1350 pupils in the whole School, Junior House to Sixth Form inclusive.
The intellectual life is made up of discrete subjects taught be specialist teachers, sometimes in specialist classrooms. At the base of the curriculum is RE, where pupils learn about their Catholic faith, how to grow into it, and how to express this through music. Expect wider reflection on the life of faith and the Catholic habit of being and seeing to infuse all parts of the curriculum!
The School puts a very high premium on engagement in co-curricular activity. This includes a full Sport, Music and Drama programme, in addition to intellectually based activities and a range of fun clubs and societies. All staff are expected to contribute to this programme, sharing their talents and interests with the pupils, and helping them to grow.
