Oasis Community Learning will give up control of a school for the first time, after a damning ‘inadequate’ Ofsted report that found more than half of pupils did not attend regularly.
Oasis Academy Isle Of Sheppey has never been rated ‘good’ or better since opening from the merger of two schools in 2009, with Oasis, the sixth largest trust in England, taking over as sponsor in 2014.
The school has been rated ‘requires improvement’ three times since, before sliding into special measures last year.
Inspectors found more than half of pupils were not attending regularly, while behaviour was “often dangerous” and the trust did “too little to tackle…racist, sexist and homophobic language”.
