The Oakwood Academy (formerly Big Wood School)' is a secondary school located on Bewcastle Road, Warren Hill, Nottingham, England.[1] It is for 11- to 16-year-olds and is of mixed genders.[2] The school specialises in business and enterprise and was one of the first BSF Schools to be built in Nottingham with 21st Century facilities.
Previously a community school administered by Nottingham City Council, Big Wood School converted to academy status on 1 April 2015 and was renamed The Oakwood Academy after the oak tree sitting predominantly outside the school grounds; sitting in front of the main entrance. It is now sponsored by the Redhill Academy Trust but continues to coordinate with Nottingham City Council for admissions.
