It is a privilege to be the Principal of King Edward VI Community College (KEVICC). We are blessed with some wonderful young people, supportive parents and a talented team of staff.
Our campus is a delight with the River Dart on one boundary and the beautiful Sixth Form Centre in its own grounds on the other side.
What is particularly special about KEVICC are the excellent relationships that exist. We listen to the students, we give them a lot of responsibility and they accordingly have responded positively. It is a happy and successful school.
Our exam results are amongst the best in Devon, both at GCSE and A Level and we also have outstanding success with special needs students.
We are also a school that is not afraid to make brave decisions if we believe it will benefit our work. For example in 2003 we successfully introduced a non-uniform policy and in 2004 we appointed an Executive Chef who prepares outstanding meals, locally sourced.
More recently we have developed the international dimension of our work. Our established links with France, Germany and Spain have been extended to include Calcutta and California.
The sense of energy and commitment at KEVICC is tangible. We are all learning something new everyday.
