  • Newsletter: Issue 15 Easter 2019
    1 Newsletter: Issue 15 Easter 2019 Welcome to the Easter addition of the Bideford College newsletter. I hope you enjoy reading about some of the activities our school community have taken part in during the Spring term. As well as students working incredibly hard in lessons, it is pleas- ing to read the successes of our students beyond their formal curriculum. As always, the success of our sports men and woman is evident within our local community and beyond! We have had a num- ber of students competing at national and international level in a wide range of events including cricket, windsurfing, gymnas- tics and athletics. The commitment of our students also extends to our outdoor education department who are practising hard for the Ten Tors event as well completing the requirements of the Duke of Edinburgh awards. As you will read in the faculty news, students have taken part in a number of enrichment activities. Trips, competitions and talks from visiting speakers all serve to enrich the learning of our students and we look forward to developing these further at the College next year. Our Sixth Form students are currently preparing hard for their AS, A-level and BTEC exams this summer, many of whom have offers from some of the UK’s top universities. Similarly, the Year 11 exams start in earnest next month and they too are work- ing hard. It is so encouraging to see so many students taking up the opportunity to attend after school revision sessions. Some students are even coming into college during the Easter holidays for extra sessions.

  • Greenpower Team Race Ahead in International Finals
    1 Newsletter: Issue 13 October 2018 Greenpower Team Race Ahead in International Finals Bideford College Racing Take Second Place in Final! On the 5th of October, Bideford College Racing Team travelled up to Rockingham Motor Speedway in Leicestershire to com- pete in the Greenpower F24 International Kit Car Final. Greenpower F24 is an electric formula car race for under 16 year old. The team set off at 4am in the morning to be there in time for scrutineering. This was the last Greenpower final at Rocking- ham Raceway, a track at which Bideford College Racing hold the lap record. With 51 cars on grid including teams from as far away as China, everything was set for the 11:30 start of the 90-minute race. Early in the race Adam managed to stay roughly half a lap behind the Bromsgrove School car called The Chicken, the race favourite. This was good because Bromsgrove School have a tendency to drain their batteries early and to make slow driver changes in the pit stops. For the first 30 minutes, Adam was consistently lapping around the same speed, staying ahead of another main rival, Megazord from Bristol Grammar School. At the first pit stop, the Bideford College car, JRB Special was in the lead, but only because the Chicken had made its first pit stop 3 laps earlier. Thanks to an amazing pit stop by the team, their second of the three mandatory drivers, Alex, re-joined ahead of The Chicken. Unfortunately, The Chicken had picked up some good momentum in the three laps after its pit stop, and soon overtook JRB Special.
