As a community school, Sidmouth College is administered by Devon County Council, and attracts pupils from as far afield as Exmouth and Exeter.[2] In February 2012 the college was deemed 'Good' by Ofsted, with 852 students on roll.[3] This level of improvement in the College's provision followed its last inspection (May 2009) when it was deemed 'satisfactory'.[4] After the 2005 Ofsted report, when there were 869 students on roll, it was also deemed 'satisfactory'.[5]
Sidmouth College offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs.[6] The school also has a specialism in technology.[2]
