Oasis Academy Temple Quarter

The Academy is currently in the pre-opening phase. Oasis Community Learning is working closely with our partners Bristol City Council, Department for Education and developer Square Bay, to  design and build an academy that will best serve our students and local community. We look forward to publicising further details about the academy, including further consultation opportunities and proposed opening date, in the near future.

Oasis is determined that the academy is an outstanding school from the very start, and therefore we have appointed an experienced school leader, Alison Eynon, as our Temple Quarter Development Lead. Working across the preparations for the Academy, she is already establishing strong links within our community, and with our neighbouring schools and businesses.
