Comberton Village College


Comberton Village College is a vibrant 11-19 college situated on the edge of the South Cambridgeshire village of Comberton, close to Toft. It opened in 1960 as a school for 240 pupils and now accommodates around 1,700 students, including those in the Sixth Form, which opened three years ago and is already proving one of the most successful in the county.

Last summer’s GCSE results which saw 80% of students achieving five or more A*-C grades were the best among state schools and the Sixth Form statistics of 90% A*-C grades at A level were also impressive. At the last Ofsted inspection in 2013, both the 11-16 part of the school and the Sixth Form were rated outstanding in all areas.

All students are helped and encouraged to realise the highest level of achievement of which they are capable, with ‘Excellence for All’ the driving force  behind the Comberton Academy Trust, which oversees Comberton Village College as well as the colleges at nearby Cambourne and Melbourn and The Voyager in Peterborough.

Opportunities abound for students at Comberton with a huge range of curricular trip and visits, both locally and nationally, partnerships with schools in Europe, African and South America as well as an enviable choice of after-school activities on offer.

But Comberton is so much more than students and  exam results. Established under the Henry Morris principle of a school at the heart of its community, Comberton still holds those values true today with a thriving Community Education department and Sports and Arts complex which allow many clubs, societies and individuals to benefit from the superb facilities.

In addition Comberton was designated as one of the first Teaching School’s in the country and is at the forefront of providing training and support for the teaching profession, from initial teacher training to senior leadership, as part of the Cambridge Teaching Schools Network.
