About the college

Ringmer Community College is a technology college for pupils aged 11 to 16, with over 900 pupils on roll. The College is situated in the village of Ringmer about 3 miles from the town of Lewes in East Sussex. As a rural college, our catchment area is focused on the village of Ringmer but extends over the neighbouring rural communities. We work closely with our seven main primary feeder schools in developing Key Stage 2 to 3 links especially in the areas of science, mathematics, technology and sport.
