At Oriel, we champion the Aspirations 3 Guiding Principles: self-worth, purpose and engagement.

As an Aspirations Academy, we help our students develop an understanding of their full potential and equip them with the tools, skills and knowledge needed to grow and achieve this full potential.

We encourage all students to reach for the stars and nurture them in achieving their dreams. Our students demonstrate a real love for learning in every classroom and a determination to succeed.
