📚✍️ Year 12 English Language and Literature – Graham Pidgeon Visit ✍️📚
Earlier this week, our Year 12 English Language and Literature students had the pleasure of welcoming Graham Pidgeon, a successful Gothic writer, for a fascinating and engaging workshop.
Drawing on his experience as a published author of Gothic fiction, Graham helped students develop their understanding of key Gothic conventions, including atmosphere, setting, the supernatural, suspense and psychological horror. The session provided valuable insight into the craft of Gothic writing and encouraged students to think more deeply about how writers create tension, engage readers and reflect societal fears through their work.
Students also benefited from learning about the writing and publishing process from a practising author, helping to strengthen both their analytical and creative skills.
We are incredibly grateful to Graham for sharing his expertise, enthusiasm and experience, and for inspiring our students as they continue their exploration of the Gothic genre.

The Year 13 Prom was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate with this fantastic group of young people. From the impressive arrivals to the enthusiastic dancing at the end of the evening, it was a joy to see them enjoying time together with their friends and teachers.
A huge thank you to Sweetwoods Golf Club for hosting us and helping to make the evening so special.
We would like to wish our 2026 Sixth Form leavers every success with their future plans. We look forward to welcoming them back on Results Day, and celebrating their achievements once again at their Graduation and Prizegiving Evening.
✨ Good luck, Class of 2026 – we are very proud of you all! ✨

📢 Can You Help Support Our Students?
We have a small group of students who have been unable to secure a work placement, and we would love to hear from local businesses that may be able to accommodate a student – even for just a few days.
Hosting a student can make a real difference, providing valuable workplace experience and helping them develop key skills for their future.
If you are able to help, all we require is: ✅ A copy of your Employers’ Liability Insurance Certificate
✅ Completion of a simple form, which can be emailed to you and returned electronically
For more information, please contact frontdesk@oxted.thpt.org.uk.
Thank you for supporting our local young people and helping them gain valuable experience in the workplace.

🎉 Congratulations to Elsie, Alfie and Evan on completing this year's Oxted Pram Race! 🎉
Our students put a great deal of thought into their pram design and raced brilliantly through the water obstacles. Along the way, we enjoyed chatting with Oxted residents about the history of the school and the different house badges, making it a fantastic community event as well as a fun challenge.
A huge thank you to everyone in Oxted for your support and encouragement throughout the day. We had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to next year!
See you in 2027!

With the warmer weather expected to continue into next week, students will keep wearing their PE uniform to school, up to and including Friday 3 July, as outlined in the letter sent home on Friday. Students must bring their lanyard and wear it at all times.
Please make sure your child continues to bring a water bottle to school every day, so they can stay hydrated. Students will be able to refill bottles as needed throughout the day.
Please also ensure your child applies sun cream in the morning and brings additional sun cream to re-apply at break and lunchtime. They should also bring a sunhat to wear when outside.
Thank you for your support.

The House System
The House system has existed at Oxted School since 1929 when the school first opened. Originally there were four Houses: Detillens, Foyles, Grants and Tenchleys. As Oxted’s success grew and the school became more popular a fifth House was needed and Stocketts was created in 1965.
