Student Testimonies

We have always been proud of the engagement of our students in their RE learning, especially at A level, and taking it on to the university level. Below are some comments from ex-students explaining how important their RE learning at Oaklands has been and where it has taken them in their lives.

I am finding Bristol so fun, just applied to do a Masters Research Degree and Theology! (Which I will be doing on Female Mystics in medieval Europe) I wanted to say thank you for teaching me all these years because I am absolutely loving the study of religion! Actually some fun news, I have been selected and am being published in a Student Academic Journal!

Missing my time in Oaklands but I am very grateful the time spent! I am really enjoying my Undergrad dissertation here at the moment! Doing it on the Historical and Biblical Jesus as compared to the ways that politicians manipulate his image in Contemporary Poland.

Throughout my education at Oaklands, I have always enjoyed RE as a subject. Not being from a religious background, the subject offered me a lot of information and I was always eager to learn more about it. Despite being more STEM minded, taking RE at A Level opened my eyes to see the world of knowledge out there, and I decided that I wanted to pursue it further. The staff at Oaklands made the subject so interesting and welcoming and it has allowed me to excel in it. Now I plan to study Philosophy and Psychology at Durham University, and eventually get a PHD.
