Relationships at Oak Field Primary School – The Oak Field Deal
​
At Oak Field Primary School, our approach to building positive relationships is guided by the Oak Field Deal. This set of principles underpins everything we do and reflects our commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive community where every individual is valued.
​
The Oak Field Deal – Our Core Values:
• Be Safe: We prioritise safety in all that we do, ensuring that everyone in our community feels secure and protected.
• Be Respectful: Respect is at the heart of our interactions. We treat each other with kindness and consideration, just as we would like to be treated.
• Be Kind: Kindness is not just encouraged—it is expected. We are kind to ourselves and each other, always striving to make a positive impact.
• Talk, Talk and Talk!: Open and honest communication is vital. We encourage everyone to speak freely, trust one another, and be truthful.
• Listen, Listen and Listen!: We listen attentively and with empathy, supporting one another through challenges and successes.
• Be Ourselves: At Oak Field, individuality is celebrated. We are proud of who we are and encourage each other to be honest and true to ourselves.
• Accept One Another: We embrace diversity, showing empathy, tolerance, and understanding of our differences. We believe being fair doesn’t always mean treating everyone the same, but recognising and valuing individual needs.
• Be a Family: We see ourselves as one big Oak Field family—Together Everyone Achieves More. When things go wrong, we use restorative practices to mend differences and grow stronger together.
• Be Our Best: Every day, we strive to be the best version of ourselves, supporting one another to achieve and grow.
• Be Proud: We take pride in who we are and in being part of the Oak Field community. We are Oak Field, We are Proud!
​
Our Commitment to Restorative Practices
​
When misunderstandings or conflicts arise, we are committed to using restorative approaches. This means taking the time to listen, understand, and work together to find solutions that bring us closer as a community. Our aim is always to heal and move forward, stronger and more united.
​
