Mr Matthew Oakman
Head of Saint Felix School
Head’s Welcome
It gives me enormous pleasure to take on the role of Head at Saint Felix School in Southwold; it is a wonderful all-through school, from Nursery to Sixth Form, in the most beautiful rural and coastal setting.
Every child has the opportunity to flourish and thrive with individualised and personal learning at the heart of their educational experience. Our ambitions are to find and fuel the passions and interests that will stay with these students during their time at school and beyond.
Small classroom settings enable all students to achieve and fulfil their academic potential within a broad curriculum designed to give breadth of opportunity and increased depth of study as they move through the age groups.
With a strong co-curricular offering to enrich the everyday experiences of Saint Felix students across sport, the arts, clubs and activities, they will all have the prospect of a wide array of new and exciting experiences. In addition, an excellent pastoral system of support and guidance through our boarding houses and day form tutors ensures that every child can successfully navigate their pathway with the individualised help that will allow them to succeed.
I look forward to welcoming you to our wonderful school and allowing you to experience the warm, family-like community, meet our incredible students and staff, and see all that Saint Felix has to offer.
