The schools emphasise a progressive educational philosophy, inspired by the principles of Montessori education.^[2] The most recent Ofsted report rates Forest Farm School as 'good', noting that "pupils enjoy the warm, family atmosphere created by the school" and "achieve well over time owing to good teaching and a broad and balanced curriculum."^[3]

Oxford Montessori Schools is a small school with around 80 pupils at the Forest Farm campus, and is a member of the Human Scale Education movement.
