With over one hundred subjects on offer it's your choice what you study. Choose from A levels and BTEC qualifications. Students have consistently high achievements in all qualifications at all levels. St Brendan's is proud to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma, an internationally recognised qualification. Alongside six subjects, students develop their independent study skills preparing them for university or employment.

Student - speaking
It's quite different at St Brendan's to secondary school, because you call the teachers by their first names, so that took some getting used to. But they're really friendly, always there when you need help. They run workshops for you.
[Views of students engaged in a number of activities - playing badminton, cricket, rugby, netball, doing experiments, singing and a student lighting a candle in the chapel]
Narrator - voiceover
Enrichment is a huge part of college life. You can get involved in a range of activities from sports to journalism. All courses offer enrichment in the shape of trips, visiting speakers and conferences.

We're a kind of halfway house here at St Brendan's between school and university, providing those stepping stones along the way. We attract from over seventy schools in South Gloucestershire, Bath and Bristol. So whoever you are, we can help you achieve your aspirations.
