Community

Together we grow!

At Hob Moor Oaks Academy, we believe that our pupils thrive when they are deeply connected to a supportive and vibrant community. This page highlights how we engage with and value our community, and how you can be a part of it.

Our six core values are supported by the following community priorities:

  • Inclusion & Belonging: We strive to create a world where every individual feels valued and included. Our community partnerships help break down barriers, build understanding, and ensure our pupils feel a true sense of belonging.
  • Real-World Learning: The community offers a dynamic classroom beyond our walls. It provides invaluable opportunities for our pupils to develop essential life skills, practise social interactions, and gain practical experiences in authentic settings.
  • Support & Resources: Our community provides a network of resources, services, and opportunities that enhance the support we offer to our students and their families.
  • Empowering Futures: By engaging with the community, our pupils gain confidence, build independence, and develop the skills necessary for a successful transition into adulthood and active participation in society.

Our community lead is Nicky Ellis, please contact Nicky if you are interested in working in partnership with us.
