One of the specialisms of Ripley St Thomas is specialist Language College and as such our students have a wide range of opportunities from students exchange programmes with French and German Schools, trips to Spain and Italy as well as international projects which last year included South Africa.
In Year 12 students have the opportunity for a one month work experience in France, Italy, Spain and Germany.
Further Information on Ripley St Thomas
Ripley St Thomas is a Voluntary-Aided comprehensive Church of England School with 1580 pupils aged 11-18 on roll.
Of these 318 are in the sixth form. The school admits 243 pupils each September, mainly coming from the Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham, Lunesdale, Carnforth and Garstang areas. We are confident that at Ripley we provide a rigorous and productive learning environment where children are both challenged and supported. Our conviction is that education should address the whole of what it means to be a happy, fulfilled and successful adult.
We have high expectations of all our pupils and are determined that each young person will experience success during his or her time with us. Not everything goes right or works all the time, but one thing is certain; we will do our best to ensure that all our pupils achieve their potential — and enjoy themselves in the process!
