Welcome to the Website of Sir Harry Smith Community College. I hope that we are able to convey to you some of what we are like as a school and to give you all the information that you need, either as a parent, student, Governor, member of our local community or prospective member of staff.
The College was given an excellent Ofsted report in 2008, when we were classed as a “good school”. A highlight of the report was that the enjoyment of the students was rated as “outstanding”. The inspectors found that “the students make good progress because they are taught well; they have very good attitudes to learning, behaviour in lessons is often exemplary: attendance and punctuality are good.”
We are proud to be a comprehensive school which serves our local community. We have some excellent facilities which we are constantly updating. The latest building project was a new Sixth Form/Community Centre, which was completed in January 2009. The College is also part of the Cambridgeshire Building Schools for the Future programme, which aims to transform the buildings and the learning at the College over the next five years through a multi million pound investment.
The aim of the website is also to give prospective parents and students information to allow you to judge whether Sir Harry Smith Community College is the right place for your child. Having read the information, we hope that you will come and see for yourself the high quality and exciting range of education opportunities that we are able to offer here.
Students succeed and enjoy their education at Sir Harry Smith Community College. We hope that you and your son or daughter will join us for a very exciting and rewarding learning journey over the next seven years.
