Oakbank School, Ryeish Green

Oakbank School is a coeducational secondary school located in the hamlet of Ryeish Green (near Spencers Wood) in Berkshire, England.

History
The first school on the site was Three Mile Cross Primary School, built in 1911. It originally taught pupils aged 5 to 14 years. Its first headmaster was Mr Reeley. After World War II, the school modernised, expanded and amalgamated with a school in Spencers Wood to become a senior school. The school later was renamed Ryeish Green School.

Between 2002 and 2006, the school saw a reduction of approximately 150 students. In 2007, an independent candidate stood in the local council elections running on a Save Ryeish Green School ticket. Although both Labour and Liberal candidates stood down in favour of him, he fell a few votes short of the Conservative candidate who supported the school's closure. Wokingham Borough Council closed Ryeish Green in 2010.

In September 2012, Oakbank School, a free school opened on the site.
