Please phone the office on 023 80 862530 to let us know you're interested in a place at the school. We can check what spaces we have available, and arrange for a meeting or tour with our Leadership Team. 

Depending on the time of year, we may already have some Open Day/Evening sessions which you'd be welcome to join.

We'd love to show you around the school and answer any questions you might have, in person. We'd encourage your child to come along too, as it's important that they feel comfortable and involved with the decision about their school, where that's possible. Other family members are also welcome.

You'll be given a pack to take away, with lots of useful information in it.

If you would like your child/ren to join Oakfield, please log in to the Hampshire Admissions Portal to apply for a place:  https://www.hants.gov.uk/educationandlearning/admissions

We'll let you know in writing if you've been successful within 10 working days (and in no more than 15 days), although we always aim to respond far sooner than that. If you're applying during the school holidays, you'll receive a response at the start of the next term.

Note on how to log into the portal: You should hopefully have set up a username and password on the Hampshire Admissions Portal when you applied for your child's first school place, and you will need to use the same details to log in. You can reset your password if you can't remember it, or contact admissions.team@hants.gov.uk if you're stuck.

If your application is accepted, please log on again to the Hampshire Admissions Portal to accept the Place and agree a date for your child or children to start at Oakfield Academy (within the next 4 school weeks).

If we receive multiple applications for a single place, it will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis; so it's important to accept the place as soon as possible. 

We can arrange a 'taster day' before your child starts full-time with us, if they're nervous and would prefer a more gentle start.

After your place is accepted, please complete our online Registration Form, which requests all the important information we'll need to set up your child's profile and to help us to understand and meet their needs. It takes around 30 minutes.

If you are registering more than one child to start with us, please complete a form for each child.

We'll need to verify your child's identity before they start with us. Please bring their original birth certificate or UK Passport to the school office (in reception) to be photocopied.

We also need to see proof of address for the parent/guardian that the child lives with. Please bring in any two of the following original documents:

• Driving licence (photocard)
• A recent Council tax bill showing both your name and the home address
• A recent Utility bill (gas, electricity, water) showing both your name and home address
• A recent bank statement showing both your name and the home address.

We'll assess whether you might be eligible for free school meals when we review your application form, and will let you know if you qualify. 

If you do, you'll also receive £100 to help you pay for school uniform, clubs, school trips, and music lessons.

The Uniform page on our website details everything your child will need to start. They won't need pens, pencils or other stationery, as the school will provide this.

We understand uniform can be expensive. If you are struggling, or need uniform urgently, please do speak to us as we may have second-hand items you can have / borrow.
