Reigate College is a state college in Reigate, Surrey, England, for students aged 16–19.[1] The college occupies part of the town centre between the High Street and railway station.
Reigate College was graded by Ofsted as "Outstanding" in 2008.[2]
Curriculum
The college offers predominantly GCE AS/A level and BTEC two-year courses,[3] and GCSE re-sit courses in Mathematics, English Language and Biology, alongside a student's 2 year programme.[4]
Previously, there was provision for students to enrol on an Intermediate Programme (pre- A Level), however the college made an assertion that "due to changes in government policy this is now no longer the case".[5]

Recruiting or drawing from up to 100 state and independent schools each year, the college serves as a dedicated sixth form to seven partner schools: Oakwood School, Reigate School, Carrington School, de Stafford School, Merstham Park School, The Priory CofE School Dorking and The Beacon School.[6] Students at these schools are guaranteed a place at the College, so long as they meet minimum entry requirements and have an excellent school reference.

The main ILC is in the Independent Learning centre building with the library.
