Oaklands has a proud heritage in providing transformational education for over a century (https://www.oaklands.ac.uk/about-us/100-years/), tracing its roots back one hundred years when it opened its doors to both men and women on an equal basis. From its very start it has believed passionately in the power and beauty of the curious mind and has stretched and supported its students in equal measure so that they have been enabled to fulfil their ambitions and dreams.

Oaklands remains true to those proud origins, while being a contemporary college – always looking forward and fostering innovation. It is a community of learners and is proud to be a partner in its students’ journeys, ensuring each and every one of its students is treated and respected as an individual - Oaklands expects the best for and from its students.

Over 1,500 full and part-time courses are delivered across its three campuses, to over 7,500 students, covering a wide spectrum of subjects, sectors and industries. The College is nationally renowned for its sports academies where sporting and academic excellence are driven with equal importance and where many of its alumni go on to compete globally and/or continue their sport and education in top international universities, including in the US – six of its former students having represented Great Britain in the Tokyo Olympics and Para-Olympics (https://www.oaklands.ac.uk/oaklands-alumni-claims-first-medal-of-tokyo-olympics/ https://www.oaklands.ac.uk/oaklands-paralympians-power-to-success-in-tokyo/).
