Brockington College is a highly successful 11-16 school with 1,200 students currently on roll. Students attending the school mainly live in the catchment villages of Enderby, Narborough, Huncote, Thurlaston and Croft, and the school is a popular choice for students from a wide out of catchment area, from Leicester city to the north and Stoney Stanton to the south.
We are a Church of England Academy, attended by students from a variety of faith backgrounds and our strong Christian ethos is the firm foundation for all that we do. The ethos runs so strongly through college life that it was graded as 'excellent' in our recent Statutory Inspection of Anglican Schools in June 2023. Our facilities are 'state-of-the-art' and make a strong contribution to teaching standards and to student and staff well-being. Members of staff enjoy a range of CPD and INSET opportunities, a robust support system for ECTs, free car parking, weekly sports opportunities and voluntary prayer meetings, alongside other wellbeing opportunities. The school runs a wide variety of enrichment opportunities for students, as well as a range of residential trips, which members of staff support both near and far, from the Forest of Dean and Norfolk to Iceland, Kenya and China.
