Rydon Community College

Rydon Community College is a maintained comprehensive middle-deemed-secondary school for pupils aged 10 to 13. The school is located just outside Storrington, West Sussex, England, in the village of Thakeham. It is one of only 7 schools of its type in the United Kingdom, and currently caters for around 400 pupils. Rydon has specialisms in Science College and Business and Enterprise College . All subjects are taught to Year 6 pupils and above as secondary pupils. The school permanently closed in July 2017.
The school was first opened in 1940 as the Storrington council senior school. It was developed and extended over the following years, being renamed as Rydon county secondary school. The roll continued to rise until the mid-1960s, but had fallen to just 328 by 1968. Accordingly, in 1969, the school was modified to become an intermediate school offering education for pupils aged between 10 and 13 years.
