Admissions
At Sidmouth College we are very proud of our students and the positive atmosphere at the College. We actively encourage prospective students and their parents or carers to view the College, during organised daytime and evening open events.
College visits allow you to get a real sense of the environment and whether it is the right choice for your child and their individual needs.
If you are considering Sidmouth College for your son/daughter then why not view our online resources from our Open Days here.
You will have the opportunity to discover our new building which opened in January 2021. We are an ambitious College and our students and staff work hard to achieve the best possible outcomes. Alongside our broad and balanced curriculum we have a fantastic range of enrichment opportunities for students to develop confidence and leadership skills whilst having opportunities to visit a wide range of places both in the UK and further abroad.
