South Devon College is a Further and Higher Education college with top success rates, located in Torbay, which is part of the beautiful English Riviera on the South Devon coast. Our state of the art campus offers local access to world class facilities. We are an ambitious College, ambitious for our learners, our staff and the community we serve. We measure our performance by the success of our learners.

Our fresh vibrant culture provides over 10,000 learners each year with a wide provision ranging from national curriculum in South Devon High School, Post Sixteen Academic and Technical Qualifications, Apprenticeships, courses for adults and Higher Education programmes in University Centre South Devon, contributing an overall £30 million College expenditure to the local economy.

We are delighted to be recognised by employers and students alike as one of the top Further Education and Tertiary Colleges in England. Top results and satisfaction reflect our wide curriculum, with personalised programmes which are delivered by dedicated and passionate tutors, all of whom have good industry experience. Recently, we have received Foundation Degree Awarding Powers from the Quality Assurance Agency and approved by the Privy Council. This is further recognition of our excellence in higher education and higher skills, which will lead us into many new developments over the coming years.

The staff at South Devon College are truly inspirational and this is a reflection on the whole College culture of continuous improvement and support for all of our students and communities. We hold the prestigious Investors in People (IIP) Platinum accreditation, the highest level awarded by the people management standard. This prominent distinction confirms the College’s status as not just a leading Further Education College, but also as a top employer in the country, as it joins the top 7% of accredited organisations across the UK.
