Frome Community College, styled as Frome College, is a comprehensive school in Frome, Somerset, England for students aged 13 to 18. Approximately 1,200 were enrolled in December 2021,[1] within the three tier system. Students' studies at the college lead up to GCSE, GNVQ, AS-Level and A-Level qualifications. Adult learning courses are also offered,[2] as well as a nursery for preschool children.
The college contains two distinct year groups. Pre-16 students are those in Years 9, 10 and 11 who are mostly studying for GCSEs.[3] Post-16 students are part of the school's tertiary sector and so are known as sixth form students; they are for the most part studying AS/A-Levels. The site has a large self-contained sixth form building called Frome Futures.[4]
The school was assessed as 'good' in all categories at its last full Ofsted inspection in January 2014, and this was confirmed by a short inspection in April 2018.[5]
The college campus incorporates the 240 seat Merlin Theatre[6] and Frome Sport and Fitness, both of which are open to the school's use during school hours. Frome Sport and Fitness offers a wide range of activities including swimming, indoor bowls, squash and a gym.[7]
Uniform for Year 9, 10 and 11 students is a navy blue blazer with purple lining bearing the school logo and the word 'Frome' below, a white shirt, a traditional tie in their house colour (red, orange, green or blue), mid grey trousers or purple and white tartan skirt and black shoes.
