Yours sincerely, Lynne Dawes Executive Principal Oasis Academy Enfield and Oasis Academy Hadley About Oasis Academy Enfield Oasis Academy Enfield opened in September 2007 as a new academy. Initially a group of portacabins and a pioneering spirit, the Academy moved into its £30 million purpose-built accommodation one year later on Innova Business Park, 10 minutes walk from Enfield Lock Station. The Academy has enjoyed considerable success in its 10 year History. In June 2018 Ofsted judged that the school continues to be good. The percentage of students achieving the top grades at both GCSE and A Level has risen over the years. The Sixth Form is becoming increasingly popular and outcomes are amongst the best within the Oasis group. Three quarters of students have progressed to university including Russell Group and other leading universities. About Oasis Academy Hadley Oasis Academy Hadley opened in September 2009 and in January 2013 moved to our new, state of the art building, on South Street, Ponders End, EN3 4PX, a two minute walk from Ponders End train station. The Academy has been very successful since it opened. In 2016 the Ofsted Inspection judged the Academy to be good in all areas. The popularity of the Academy has increased year on year and we are now the school of choice for our local families and is over-subscribed in many year groups. The Sixth Form is the first choice for our Year 11 students and has become increasingly popular with external students from local schools. The percentage of students achieving the best grades at both GCSE and A Level has risen significantly over the years. Last summer our Progress 8 score was +0.3 putting in the top 18% of schools in the country. Over 94% of our students have progressed to university including 47% Russell Group universities following a wide range of courses including from English, politics to engineering, psychology and law. Students also make good progress across primary phase. We began Phase 1, our primary section, in September 2010, and the Nursery opened when we moved to the new site. We now have a very successful 2 and 3 year old Nursery with full day care. About Oasis Community Learning The vision of Oasis Academies is to create both outstanding schools and community hubs.
