School Description

Suffolk One is registered as a school, but is referred to as a college. It is much larger than the averagesized secondary school. Around half of students are enrolled on GCE A and AS subjects, with most others on vocational provision including a wide range of level 3 National Diplomas and some level 2 and level 4 provision. Up to 80 places are funded in Year 12 and also in Year 13 for the college’s foundation learning provision, which is at entry and level 1 for students with disabilities or special educational needs. The very large majority of the student population is White British, and the proportion of students who speak English as an additional language is small. There are more girls than boys on roll. The proportion of students who are disabled and those who have special educational needs is below average. As a post-16 institution, the college receives no additional pupil premium funding for disadvantaged students. However, the proportion of disadvantaged students (those known to be entitled to free school meals or were previously classified as eligible for the pupil premium) is lower than typically found in secondary schools nationally. The students’ prior attainment when they start college at the age of 16 is typically below the national figure for post-16 institutions. The proportion of students with the highest GCSE grades is well below average. The government does not set floor standards for the attainment and progress of post-16 institutions. Plans are in place for the college to convert to academy status, as early as September 2015, as part of the Suffolk Academies Trust.
