St Bede's and St Joseph's Catholic College is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school and sixth form. It is located over two sites in the City of Bradford in the English county of West Yorkshire.[1] The school was formed in September 2014 as a result of a merger between St Bede's Grammar School and St Joseph's Catholic College.
Description
The school is based over both of the former school sites with the new mixed gender Year 7 being based at the former St Joseph's site. Students who were attending either of the old schools prior to the merger will remain in single sex education at the site they previously attended until they finish in Year 11 and will continue to wear the old school uniforms. The school will be fully coeducational by September 2018.
Once the school is fully coeducational, the lower school (Years 7-9) will be based at the old St Joseph's site and the upper school (Years 10-13) will be based at the old St Bede's site.
The school has a coeducational sixth form, St Benedict's Sixth Form, with the current Year 13 based at St Joseph's and the current Year 12 based at St Bede's. From September 2015 all sixth form students will be based at the old St Bede's site.
The old St Joseph's site has been renamed Ignis (Template:Lang-la) and the old St Bede's site has been renamed Ardor (Template:Lang-la).
St Bede's and St Joseph's Catholic College is a voluntary aided school administered by Bradford City Council and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Leeds. The school is named after Saint Bede and Saint Joseph.
