This year has proved, like no other, that our students demonstrate outstanding resilience and adaptability, facing the ever changing educational landscape with pragmatism and maturity beyond their years.  

“They have been taught by the most amazing team of teachers, who throughout this year and during lockdown have maintained their unwavering support and guidance; be that in person, on the phone, via email or through video calls, despite facing the technical challenges this can present!

“We are thrilled for all of our students and the exceptional set of results that they have achieved. It is a testament to how well our teachers know our students, the excellent relationships combined with outstanding subject knowledge has resulted in a set of results that the college is exceptionally proud of. 

“We are excited to be welcoming new and existing students in September to our outstanding sixth form and to support them with their post 16 education. We would like to take this opportunity to wish South Dartmoor students every success for the future and we look forward to watching them flourish through the next stage of their educational journey, whatever that may be.”
