Overview

Welcome to Sidcot, an independent day and boarding school which encourages children to make a difference in the world through teaching them to live their lives adventurously, to question and to take action. We celebrate individuality and challenge our students to think with greater depth to reach a better understanding of themselves in relation to the world we live in.

As a school that accepts children with wide ranging strengths and abilities, we are very proud that we achieve some of the strongest exam results in the South West and particularly stand out in Maths, Science and the Arts. The introduction of the IB to our Sixth Form curriculum in 2007 supports our core educational aim of delivering engaging, progressive education, and an aim that has driven our teaching since the foundation of Quaker education here in 1699.

Yes, our students get outstanding exam results but it’s not just their grades that make Sidcot students attractive to Universities and employers. It is the values we teach them as individuals and the personal skills they acquire from the vast range of extracurricular activities we can offer them, whether it is the hugely popular Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme or the extensive range of sporting, arts or equestrian pursuits.

Unique Points

Sidcot is a Quaker foundation. Quakerism is a way of life based on insights, attitudes and practices established on Christian principles. It implies an openness to the world, taking into account the whole of humanity, the environment and the way we live. It expects the highest standards of commitment, truth and consideration for others.

In 1999 Sidcod opened a new Learning Resource and Sixth Form Centre. We have a first class Soprts Centre and swimming pool; a riding centre; 20 acres of playing fields and a new Creative Arts Centre which incorporates a music school, large art depatrment and drama studio.
