Independent Day and Boarding School
A Foundation for Life
Situated in the safe, idyllic open countryside of North Devon, England, Shebbear College features both Senior and Junior Schools, taking children from Kindergarten to Sixth Form, and welcoming international pupils from all over the world. It draws upon over a century and a half of history in shaping its values and outlook. The school honours its illustrious past but has its sights firmly set on the future, embracing innovations in thought, technology, and education.
Set in an easily accessible rural environment, the College has a unique sense of community centred upon Christian teaching. Shebbear College is a co-educational day and boarding school that takes pupils all the way from Kindergarten up to Sixth form.
Less than 39 miles from Exeter, 16 miles from Okehampton and only 13 miles from Bideford, Shebbear College is easily accessible and offers transport assistance to and from main UK airports for our international pupils.
Our aim is to educate each pupil to achieve his or her potential by encouraging the highest possible standards of attainment and behaviour. We achieve this through a balanced, flexible and challenging curriculum. We provide a supportive and nurturing environment to help develop each pupil's sense of self-worth, enthusiasm for learning and optimism for the future.
We emphasise Christian values and foster responsibility, tolerance, commitment and respect for both the individual and for society.
