Exmouth Community College is one of the largest secondary schools in the country and is set in a leafy split-site location, connected by a dedicated footbridge. Our catchment area extends northwards towards Exeter city boundary and eastwards to include Budleigh Salterton and many attractive rural villages.
We have excellent contacts with our 14 feeder primary schools, which form the Exmouth Academic Council and range from within Exmouth town to the villages of Budleigh Salterton, East Budleigh, Lympstone, Otterton, Woodbury and Woodbury Salterton. The College embraces working as part of the community and has strong local partnerships.
The College’s mission is to provide a positive, enjoyable and structured approach to learning, where success is rewarded and students’ individual aptitudes are given the chance to develop. We are an inclusive College and we pride ourselves on catering for all abilities. We offer a safe, secure, non-threatening environment in which students develop consideration for others, self-discipline and positive relationships. We aim to provide a thorough education which prepares students for their future.
As an Academy, we have more flexibility in the way we manage the College. The Exmouth Community College Trust is overseen by the Governing Board who are committed to delivering the best comprehensive education for the young people of Exmouth and the surrounding villages.
Our vision is to create a College for the whole of our community that emphasises the importance of progress and innovation alongside more traditional values such as integrity, honesty and respect. For everyone we will provide the skills, knowledge and awareness to enable all to play an active and positive role in their families, workplace and global community. We will do this through excellent teaching delivered by reflective and skilled practitioners, a broad and differentiated curriculum model and opportunities beyond the classroom.
