It is a community school administered by Herefordshire Council. It replaced the former Minster College[3] and opened in September 2010. It is smaller than the average secondary school.[4]

Earl Mortimer College offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils.[5]

The current principal is Alison Banner.

School history

The school was originally established as the Minster School.[6] In 2007 the council made the decision to rebuild the school to include a sixth form, using funding from Building Schools for the Future.[7] It then became the Earl Mortimer College.[6]

The school owns the art work The Minster Triptych by David Jones and students of the school.[8]

There was a sixth form but closure of this was confirmed in 2023.[9]

School performance and inspections

In 2000, inspection by Ofsted judged the school to be improving.[4]

As of January 2023, the college’s most recent Ofsted inspection, deemed the college to be ‘good’.[10]
