South Gloucestershire and Stroud College (SGS) was formed from the merger of Filton and Stroud colleges in 2012. The college has six main campuses. The Filton campus in North Bristol provides vocational and technical education, including T levels. Academic education, including A levels, is provided at SGS Sixth Form on this site. The WISE campus in South Gloucestershire provides specialist facilities for sport, arts and media. The nearby Horizon campus was opened in 2023 to provide specialist construction facilities for apprentices. The Queens Road campus in central Bristol specialises in art. The Stroud campus in Gloucestershire provides a range of vocational education programmes. It is also the site for learners aged 14 to 16 who study full time on the ‘SGS Create’ programme. The Berkeley Green campus is based within the Gloucestershire Science and Technology Park. Skills Bootcamps have previously been offered to adult learners at this site in green construction skills, including retrofit. There were no Skills Bootcamps at the time of the inspection. Around 3,800 learners aged 16 to 18 study on programmes at levels 1 to 3. Around 50 learners study T levels in education and childcare, and health. Around 80 learners aged 14 to 16 study full time. Just under 200 learners aged 14 to 16 study part time at SGS. Most of these learners are electively home educated. Around 3,800 adult learners study a wide range of courses from entry level to level 3, with a very small proportion studying professional qualifications at levels 4 and 5. Leaders work with one subcontractor, which provides art therapy to support the rehabilitation of learners. Around 900 apprentices study apprenticeship standards. Over half study at level 3 and around a third study at level 2. The remainder study at levels 4 and 5. Around 400 learners aged 16 to 24 with high needs study at SGS. Of these, just over half study courses specifically designed for them, at both the Filton and Stroud campuses. Just under half study academic, vocational and technical programmes in the wider college.
