King Edward VI Community College (KEVICC) is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form located in Totnes, Devon, England. It is located in the Dart Valley on the A385 Ashburton Road and serves Totnes and the surrounding area. It has a large campus with around 900 students, 200 of whom are at the Kennicott Sixth Form centre adjoining the main site.
The school was founded in 1966 as the King Edward VI Comprehensive School, an amalgamation of the King Edward VI Grammar School for boys (founded 1554),[2] the Redworth Secondary Modern School and the Totnes High School for Girls. The new school was located on the sites of the Redworth Secondary Modern and the neighbouring Totnes High School for Girls. The grammar school had been on a different site ("The Mansion" on Fore Street), which was too small to accommodate the new comprehensive school.
The school received its most recent Ofsted report in 2019, where it scored a 'Good'.[3]
Previously a community school administered by Devon County Council,[4] in September 2022 King Edward VI Community College converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by Education South West.[5]
The school curriculum follows the National Curriculum of England and Wales and offers French and Spanish for a compulsory modern foreign language. Students choose 4 GCSE subjects, alongside Maths, English Language, English Literature, Science and Physical Education, which are all compulsory. Students also have the option of studying the English Baccalaureate (EBacc).[6]
The school also has Kennicott sixth form for students to take A Levels, AS Levels, BTEC National Diplomas and EPQs.
The school currently has five houses: Babbage, Davis, Gyles, Scott and Snape.
These took over from the previous four-school house system of Rea, Smythe, Jeffrey and Scott in 2001.
