About

As a student at Riverside College you will be at the centre of everything we do. We want you to reach your full potential, whilst also enjoying an inclusive and supportive college community where you can thrive. We are exceptionally proud of the class of 2024 who have achieved outstanding results and progressed on to excellent apprenticeships, jobs and degrees.

The college celebrated a 99% pass rate with 92% vocational high grades in 2024. These results demonstrate that the college consistently performs well above national averages, meaning the college provides some of the best education in the country.

Building on our Outstanding Ofsted rating in March 2020, we are thrilled to announce that Riverside College has once again been awarded an Ofsted Outstanding rating following a routine inspection in June 2024. This remarkable achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence and the dedication of our entire college community. You can read more here.

We continue to make significant investments in our facilities, the latest being £6 million in the development of a green technology building to provide courses to meet future jobs.
