Chipping Sodbury School is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form, located in Chipping Sodbury in the Unitary authority of South Gloucestershire.[1] It shares ground with the Cotswold Edge sixth-form.
Chipping Sodbury School was previously administered by South Gloucestershire Council and the Chipping Sodbury School Co-operative Trust as a foundation school. In April 2021 the school converted to academy status and is now part of The Athelstan Trust.[2]
The school has been on its present site since 1938, when Chipping Sodbury Grammar School moved there. It became a comprehensive school in 1970.[3]
The school students all belong to one of four houses; Trym, Avon, Severn and Frome. In 2019, the school formed a school senate. The school has been given a 'requires inprovement' rating from the educational review body Ofsted.
Chipping Sodbury School offers GCSEs, BTECs and OCR Nationals as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A Levels and further BTECs. The sixth form provision of the school is offered in conjunction with Brimsham Green School and Yate Academy in Yate.[4]
As of 2018, the school had a population of 772 pupils.
