Open Events & Visits
The best way to discover more about Shebbear College is to come and see us.
We hold a series of Open Events every year and you are also encouraged to come on an individual visit, which includes a tour of the school and a meeting with our Head, Mr Jenkins (if you are looking at the Senior School or Sixth Form), or our Head of the Prep School, Mr Foale (if you are looking at the Pre-Prep or Prep School).

Taster Days
Prospective pupils of all ages are asked to come on at least one Taster Day before they join us, which enables them to experience school life, meet teachers and fellow pupils and get a feel for the school. Children are also welcome to stay overnight if they would like to experience our boarding facilities. During the Taster Day our teachers will be able to informally observe your child in order to make sure that our school would be a good fit for them and that they would be happy here.
Group Taster Days
We also hold a group Form 1 Taster Day each November where all Year 6 pupils can spend a day as a Senior School student, and 'A Day in the Life of a Sixth Former' which is a chance for Year 11 pupils to experience a day as a Shebbear Sixth Former. Our next event is the 'Day in the Life of a Sixth Former' on Tuesday 9th January.
