  • The Guardian Workshop

    On July 6th, a group of 24 students went to The Guardian offices in London for workshops on 'Fake News and the Future of News'. Students worked in teams to put together and present short talks on misinformation and disinformation in the news. They also worked on creating inventions on what news could look like in 2030. Students created hologram watches, contact lenses, news screens and even a chip that can be implanted into your brain to read the news called 'Zeelon Dusk'!

  • Farewell to Frome College Stalwart

    Today we said a huge "thank you and happy retirement" to a Frome College stalwart, Welfare Officer and First Aider, Heather Cox. After 24 years of dealing with grazed knees, broken hearts and empty tummies, Heather decided the time was right to put herself and her family at the forefront of her attention. Her announcement has been greeted by an overwhelming amount of "thanks you"s from both former and current parents, students and staff. Heather will be very much missed.

  • GCSE and BTEC Results 2023

    It is surprising that the Government has chosen to reintroduce normal marking patterns with a cohort who have clearly not experienced regular key stage four years. In the context of this decision and the many challenges this year group has faced, we are very proud of each and every individual and the results all have received today. 304 students have taken a total of 2495 qualifications and have gained some fantastic levels in a wide range of subjects. We are particularly proud of the overall outcomes in Mathematics, Religion and Philosophy, Health and Social Care, Sport, Art, Photography, Textiles, Biology, Physics, Media, Music, Drama and Children’s Learning.
