Head’s Welcome
Welcome to Shebbear College!
Our ethos is based around our values of creativity and curiosity, compassion and courtesy, courage and confidence. What we do, day-in, day-out at Shebbear ensures that the correct ingredients are in place to see our pupils thrive across all areas of school life, whether it is in the classroom, on the stage, the sports field or out on the moor – we work as a team to get the best from the young people in our care.
We make the most of our stunning campus and its location in the heart of rural north Devon with outdoor education and sport playing a key part in the lives of many Shebbearians. Often described as being in “the middle of nowhere, yet the centre of everywhere” we have so much on our doorstep to develop the skills and experiences of our pupils – whether it is hitting the surf during an after school activity or taking the lead in a whole school drama production, we seek to encourage the best from everyone in a supportive and caring environment where our small size means we get to know every pupil well.
Our website gives you a taste of what we offer our Shebbearians, but the best way for you to get a true feel for our unique school is to come and visit us in person. I look forward to meeting with you.
