Bicester Community College is a mixed, multi-heritage, comprehensive school, with around 1200 students (including a sixth form) and has been a Government-designated specialist Technology College since 1998. It is situated in Bicester, Oxfordshire, England, and occupies a 32-acre (130,000 m) site leading off Queens Avenue. The school's sports facilities are used by Bicester Athletic Club, which was recently awarded National Lottery funding to add all-weather surfaces to the sports field's jumping and throwing event areas. Bicester Community College, formerly known as Bicester School, was formed as a new comprehensive school in 1966. It was created by the merger of Highfield Secondary Modern School and Bicester Grammar School, who had shared the current site since 1963. Bicester Grammar School had previously been situated at the junction of London Road and Launton Road.
