Early Finish Transport Arrangements

Where possible students should try to arrange for a lift home. All contract buses/coaches will be at the rear coach park at 2.15pm ready to depart at 2.30pm. 

  • 611 (Caterham) will only run at the end of the day
  • 609 (South Godstone, Blindley Heath, East Grinstead) will only run at the end of the day
  • 612 (South Nutfield, Smallfield and Burstow) will only run at the end of the day 

Metrobus is a timetabled public service; therefore, students may need to make alternative arrangements for getting home. The following buses run from Oxted, but they are likely to be over-subscribed: 

  • 410 (Godstone, Bletchingley and Nutfield) departs outside Pizza Express at 2.29pm
  • 410 (Hurst Green) departs outside Sainsbury’s at 2.30pm
  • 594 (Limpsfield Chart/Westerham) – departs at 2.37pm outside Sainsbury’s
  • 595 departs outside Sainsbury’s at 1.37pm
  • No Tatsfield option, 695 end of school only 

Students who are unable to make alternative arrangements, should go to the library until the usual departure time of 3.15pm. They should make sure they have brought sufficient homework, reading or revision materials to occupy them for this period.

 

Second-Hand Uniform Donations

We are looking for donations of second-hand uniform donations, in particular blazers and skirts.

If parents/carers are able to donate any uniform back to school, please drop it into reception anytime between 9am and 3pm.  Thank you for your support.

Sponsored Walk - Friday 24 May

Summer Enrichment Programme  

Attendance

The vast majority of students have made an excellent start this year and we are delighted that most students’ attendance is looking very positive. We would like to take this opportunity to remind parents of the importance of attendance at school and remind you to please telephone the school to alert us to your child’s absence for every day that they are off. Any days which are not accounted for by you (via telephone or email) will be counted as unauthorised absence.

As per Surrey County Council guidance, we will also issue fixed penalty notices (which can lead to fixed penalty fines) for extended periods of unauthorised absence. Please see the attached letter from Surrey County Council for more information about fixed penalty fines.

If you have any queries regarding attendance at Oxted School, please do contact our attendance team (attendance@oxted.thpt.org.uk) or Miss Bergamo, Assistant Principal and Attendance Lead (alexis.bergamo@oxtedthpt.org.uk)
