Cirencester College is a sixth form college based in the town of Cirencester in the South Cotswolds. It is a specialist sixth form provider serving communities in Gloucestershire, South Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire. Cirencester College offers a wide choice of qualifications including A-levels, the new T-levels in addition to vocational training.

History

[edit]

Established as a Tertiary College in 1991, Cirencester College gained its Sixth Form status in November 2011, one of only three designated colleges in the South West. Cirencester College was awarded ‘Good' status in all six categories by Ofsted in 2018, as well as Beacon status in 2004.

Campus

[edit]

The main campus is located half a mile from Cirencester town centre. In the last few years the College has undertaken a substantial building programme with a Sports Hall, multi classroom complex, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) building, and an Animal Centre which opened in September 2019.

The Gloucestershire Digital Skills Centre opened in 2022 funded by GFirst, Gloucestershire’s Local Enterprise Partnership from the Government’s ‘Getting Building Fund’ programme.

The College’s new T-level Building opened in February 2023; providing specialist accommodation for T-level students in Engineering, Health, Construction, Finance, Early Years, Accounting and Business.

The college is the site of the 275-seater Sundial Theatre, which is used for both college events and drama classes as well as external performances from bands, theatre companies, comedians, and professional speakers.[1]
