About Oasis Academy Daventry Road

Oasis Academy Daventry Road is a smaller-than-average secondary school in Bristol, with 261 pupils on roll against a capacity of 900. That’s a significant gap, and it means the school is operating at just under a third of its potential size. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 63.2%, which is notably high — well above the national average for secondary schools and a clear signal of the level of disadvantage the school serves. Despite the spare capacity, the school was oversubscribed for Year 7 entry in the 2025/26 admissions round, with 166 applications for 136 places — an oversubscription ratio of 1.22. Of those, 88 families put the school as their first preference, and all 88 received an offer. That level of demand, in a school with room to grow, suggests a strong local reputation among families who know it.
