About Us

Established almost 500 years ago, the College of Richard Collyer is forward-thinking in every way. Our mission is simple: to deliver the best possible education to our 2,300+ students aged 16 to 19. Our achievements speak for themselves, consistently placing us within the top sixth form colleges nationally. In the summer of 2022, our students achieved 71% A*–B at A Level, and with national averages returning to pre-pandemic levels in 2023, our students achieved an outstanding 61% A*–B. Results across our other qualification types are equally as strong. Approximately 70% of our offer is A Levels, with 25% comprising Level 3 vocational and technical qualifications and 5% comprising our Transition courses for students to bolster their Level 2 qualifications before progressing to Level 3. Alongside our academic, vocational and technical courses, we have a thriving enrichment programme, with over 130 activities available to all students, from sports to arts and crafts and music.

A great college deserves a great location: we’re close to the centre of the historic market town of Horsham and under an hour from London by train. We’re a supportive community rather than just a place to work, and we are deeply committed to the professional development of our staff.
