Rooted in Quaker values, we foster individuality and creative thinking.

At Sidcot, students benefit from a stretching academic environment combined with outstanding pastoral care, ensuring that students leave Sidcot as happy, well-rounded and successful individuals.
Despite being a non-selective school, our students achieve some of the strongest results in the South West, ranking alongside top selective schools. We offer a huge range of courses, including the International Baccalaureate, providing tailored pathways that allow every Sidcot student to thrive. This academic success is supported by our outstanding pastoral care and Quaker values, fostering a “home away from home” atmosphere where equality and mutual respect create deeply supportive relationships between staff and students.
Our world-class facilities and extracurricular opportunities allow students to live adventurously. Beyond the classroom, our boarders can enjoy access to unique amenities such as our Arts Centre, On-Site Observatory, Equestrian Centre, and Sports Fields where they can participate in academic clubs and competitive sports programmes, like Basketball and Tennis.
The school’s fantastic location provides the best of both worlds. Within our peaceful countryside campus, families can be assured of a safe and secure environment for focused learning. Yet, with Bristol, Bath, and London nearby, students enjoy easy access to diverse cultural opportunities and exciting weekend boarding trips, making Sidcot a truly global gateway in a quintessentially English setting.
