Description
betaOasis Academy Silvertown is a distinguished secondary coeducational free school situated in the district of North Woolwich, Newham, London. Part of the Oasis Community Learning multi-academy trust, it opened its doors in September 2014, with a religious affiliation that includes Islam. The school caters to students between ages 11 and 16, and as of January 2023, it maintains an enrollment of 447 students, with a capacity of 450. Its principal is Ms Fairouz.
By 2022, the school will transition to its permanent site on North Woolwich Road, close to West Silvertown DLR station. Architects Rivington Street Studios are designing an ambitiously modern, five-story structure that will adhere to the BB103 Area Guidelines for Schools and achieve a BREEAM “Excellent” rating.
The academy initially progressed between temporary sites and currently occupies Rymill Street, alongside King George V DLR station. To fulfill physical education requirements, the school collaborates with the Newham Leisure Centre. As part of the Oasis Community Learning trust's overarching strategy, professional development has seen all staff adopt a standard curriculum, receive systematic training, and be supplied with tablet computers through the Horizons program.
The school was rated as 'Good' in its first Ofsted inspection in 2017. As of now, Oasis Academy Silvertown is still located at its temporary site, and upon moving to its permanent home, it will serve as a testament to its mission to enhance educational opportunities and provide state-of-the-art facilities to its students and staff.
