South Dartmoor Community College is an Academy with specialist focus on Expressive Arts and Sports. We have over 1,500 enrolled students, including over 300 in our Sixth Form. The College is situated on the eastern edge of the town of Ashburton in an attractive rural setting. Most facilities are on one site with the Sixth Form Centre (Place House) about three minutes' walk away. Accommodation and resources are well regarded. The main buildings, many new and well maintained, look out over the playing fields and open farmland. The land behind the College rises steadily to the hills and local Tors (which form our House names).
