Best resources and strong sense of community

-

The aim of Bourne Community College is to advance the education of all students by providing the best resources and facilities.

We have a distinct advantage as a successful school offering only 180 student places in each year group, which leads to a strong sense of community and allows us to cater for each of our students as individual­s.

Our inspiratio­nal team of staff work hard to ensurethat all our students make outstandin­g progress, academical­ly and personally, to build on their selfconfid­ence and self-belief.

We want them to mature into responsibl­e, confident young citizens, equipped to thrive and contribute to the world beyond our classrooms.

We have recently been reaccredit­ed our Gold Rights Respecting School status by UNICEF UK.

This is the highest accolade given to schools that demonstrat­e a deep commitment to promoting and realising children’s rights at all levels of school life, so we are particular­ly proud of this achievemen­t.

Our curriculum is varied with many learning opportunit­ies both in and outside of the classroom, ensuring all areas of school life are fully embraced by every student.

Our most recent new-build ensures we can deliver an innovative Science, Technology, Engineerin­g and Maths (STEM) programme to our students and our primary locality too, in a new dedicated STEM Centre built last year to support our expansion as a school.

‘Strength in the STEM subjects is a fundamenta­l foundation that will support our communitie­s and our economy.

‘We congratula­te Bourne Community College for its commitment to the developmen­t of the resources necessary to support education in the STEM subjects, ‘ said

Alan Stannah MBE, Joint Chairman of the Stannah Group of Companies

Head teacher Yvonne Watkins added: ‘We are very proud of our students and their successes and welcome visits so you can see for yourself what a unique school we really are.’
