History

Orchard School Bristol, formerly known as Monks Park School, was a community secondary school located in the Monks Park area of Bristol, England between Horfield, Southmead and Filton.

In September 2005 the school was awarded Specialist School Status, with a combined specialism in Humanities (Social Science) and Modern Foreign Languages.

The school has recently become a Trust school with educational partners City of Bristol College, University of West of England and the Local Authority Bristol City Council.

The school became an academy in September 2012.
