About us

Welcome to Ivybridge Community College.

It is an absolute privilege to be appointed as Principal of Ivybridge Community College and to be given the opportunity to share my passion and enthusiasm for education in a high performing school.  Students, Staff and Governors at Ivybridge Community College are driven by the commitment to providing an excellent education for all students from 11 – 18 years old.  Students and staff at Ivybridge thrive because everyone matters and each individual is celebrated for all their gifts and talents.  Inherent in everything we do is a culture of high expectation and aspiration.  My ambition and vision for the College as Principal is simple: to steer the next phase of the ‘Ivybridge Legacy’ to maintain its momentum as one of the best schools in the country.

Our website provides a glimpse of how we look to provide enjoyable and meaningful learning opportunities and shares our many successes at local, regional and national level across a range of curriculum and sporting excellence.  Please do arrange a visit to us in person, browse the website and see why joining us on Ivybridge’s learning journey is so fulfilling and worthwhile.
