Located in the Southern Midlands of Tasmania, Oatlands District High School provides education within a close-knit rural community that values connection, resilience and lifelong learning. Serving families from Oatlands and surrounding districts, the school supports students from early learning through to Year 12, offering continuity of learning across all stages of schooling.
The school places strong emphasis on student-centred learning in a caring and inclusive environment, with staff working collaboratively to support each learner’s academic, social and emotional development. Guided by the Department for Education values of Connection, Courage, Growth, Respect and Responsibility, Oatlands District High School prioritises positive relationships, wellbeing and high expectations.
Learning opportunities extend beyond the core Australian Curriculum through programs such as Launching into Learning, Learning in Families Together, the school farm and gardens, and the Duke of Edinburgh Award. These programs create hands-on, real-world learning experiences that foster responsibility, engagement and independence.
With strong community ties and a commitment to equity and personalised learning, Oatlands District High School aims to develop confident, capable young people who are prepared for future learning, work and active participation in their community.
