Melksham Oak Community School is a secondary school and sixth form in the south-east outskirts of Melksham, Wiltshire, for students aged 11 to 18.
The school opened on 12 July 2010 and in August 2018, the school became part of The White Horse Federation, a multi-academy trust which runs primary and secondary schools in Wiltshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.
The school has an excellent site, perched on the edge of Melksham overlooking the rolling Wiltshire countryside. Our sports facilities are excellent, with community use in the evenings rooting the school at the heart of the community. The school benefits considerably from being part of The White Horse Federation. For instance, common curriculum sequencing supports high-quality planning and resourcing, and our staff can always reach out to colleagues in other schools for support and guidance.
In October 2022, Melksham Oak attained an Ofsted rating of "Good", improving upon its previous "Requires Improvement" rating in April 2017.
