The OATQ journey

We opened our doors in September 2023 on the site of Oasis Academy Brislington, before moving to our purpose-built temporary home on Spring Street in Bedminster in January 2024. We are currently located less than 0.5miles from Temple Meads train station, at the heart of our vibrant city centre.


From September 2027, we will move to our permanent site, situated in Bristol's Temple Quarter development zone, one of the most exciting regeneration projects in the UK at present. Temple Quarter will become a world-class gateway to the region that unlocks the city of Bristol and the West of England's potential. A series of well-connected and thriving mixed-use communities will benefit new and existing residents, employees and visitors with new homes, jobs, infrastructure, and opportunities. Oasis Academy Temple Quarter will be at the heart of this development.

Academy context

Currently our Academy comprises Year 7, 8 and 9. Our first Year 10 cohort will start in September 2026.


When we move to our permanent site in 2027, we will have a PAN of 1600 students (1200 in Y7 - Y11 and 400 in sixth form), and we expect our cohort to be truly representative of the central part of Bristol, in all its diversity.


To date, our students have bought into our culture and show pride in being part of OATQ. The Oasis Way is taught explicitly to students, and we are pleased to say that, so far, our students are responding brilliantly to the high expectations we set.

The role

The role of Teacher of Computer Science, as a standalone role, is a new addition for Septemner 2026. It's an excellent opportunity for someone passionate about the subject to develop and expand our offering.


The right candidate will join our team in Phase 2 of the academy's journey, alongside the founding staff body. The appointed candidate will work closely with our team of dedicated and motivated practitioners to continue to establish the culture, ethos, and values of a new free school. There is also the opportunity to be a key part of the development of our Year 12-13 provision in this subject.


Candidates should be aware that if the role is taken on a full-time basis there will be an expectation to teach out of specialism.


To support you in this role, the successful candidate will have access to:


Fully resourced Oasis Curriculum with a focus on developing Character, Competence and Community. A centralised behaviour system which will allow teachers to teach and learners to learn. A no marking policy, which focuses on live feedback and whole class feedback. Access to an iPad for all staff / students enabling the use of Formative and other online self-marking assessment resources. A supportive professional development programme to include fortnightly coaching and weekly whole cohort training. Access to a National Lead Practitioner network to support in the implementation of the OCL curriculum. All students and staff are provided with an iPad to improve accessibility to the curriculum and online resources.
