Congratulations to Year 10 pupils who took part in the Hampshire Schools Army Challenge at Thorney Island on 23 June.

They finished 3rd after a very hard day of physical and mental challenges.

All enjoyed the experience and said it was one of the best trips they had been on.






Careers education is an integral part of learning at Swanmore and an important aspect of every child’s personal development.

All pupils follow a careers programme, have experience of work placements and interviews and the college is working in collaboration with Eastleigh Consortium to extend opportunities for vocational studies.

To the right you will find an index of all the information listed on this page.
