About Brooke House College

Brooke House College is a co-educational independent day and boarding school in Market Harborough, welcoming pupils aged between 11 and 19. Founded in 1967, the college is home to both a football academy and a motor sport academy, giving pupils the opportunity to pursue specialist interests alongside their studies. Boarders are accommodated across nine houses, four of which sit on the main campus, and the college has recently added a purpose-built science and technology facility. The college aims to provide a safe and tolerant environment where every individual can express themselves and grow. Its focus is on academic development alongside a broad co-curricular programme, with an emphasis on nurturing self-esteem, confidence, and an appreciation of diversity. The school's community is a genuinely international one, with boarders representing 60 nationalities from around the world, while day pupils join from within a 20-mile radius. Specialist support is available for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities, those for whom English is an additional language, and those with particular talents in football and motor sport.
