Blessed Robert Sutton Catholic Sports College (formerly Robert Sutton Catholic High School) is a mixed secondary school and sixth form located in the Stapenhill area of Burton upon Trent in the English county of Staffordshire.[1] The school is named after Robert Sutton, a 14th Century Catholic priest and martyr who was born in Burton upon Trent.
Established in 1964 as Robert Sutton Catholic High School, it is a voluntary aided Catholic school administered by Staffordshire County Council and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nottingham.[2] The school gained specialist status as a Sports College in 2005 and was renamed Blessed Robert Sutton Catholic Sports College.
Blessed Robert Sutton Catholic Sports College offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs. The school previously shared a sixth form provision with the neighbouring Paulet High School,[3] however since 2015 Blessed Robert Sutton Catholic Sports College has offered its own separate sixth form provision.[4]
