Bosworth Independent College

Established in 1977 as a small tutorial college, today Bosworth is
a leading independent boarding college in the UK. Our excellent academic results, established university links and caring and supportive ethos have resulted in an enviable reputation. Teaching at   all levels is characterised by enthusiasm and passion and we pride ourselves on being a non-selective college with a proven record, both locally and overseas, for raising students’ aspirations.

Bosworth has over 300 students with each one looking forward to fulfilling their individual academic potential. With a diverse nationality mix each year, Bosworth students regularly find themselves working alongside classmates of different cultural, social and religious backgrounds – a perfect environment for curious minds. They then leave College as well-rounded individuals with an excellent opportunity to succeed in the wider world. Bosworth can offer the breadth of knowledge and experience required for students to excel.

Providing academic programmes for ages 13-19, Bosworth ensures a customised timetable is in place for each and every student. There are very few restrictions on subject combinations at GCSE and A-level and, with average class sizes of eight each student gets the individual attention they require to reach their academic potential.

As the College builds on its successful past,
it looks forward to the future educating British,
European and international students within
its culture of achievement.

Location

We are in the central of English, London Heathrow Airport is only
1 hour 15 minutes away from our college, and Birmingham International Airport is only 50 minutes from us, so the location is very convenient for students to travel to and from. Northampton is a Town, with population less than 200,000, so, there is less distractions for student’s study.

Northampton is also Princess Diana’s home town, her parents and brothers still live here http://www.althorp.com/

Boarding Houses

There are 6 supervised boarding houses where a house parent and daytime supervisors provide care and support. The buildings all have a secure coded entrance and are centrally heated, providing students with a warm and safe environment where they may relax, study and socialise with their housemates. We provide single or twin rooms, and each bedroom is separately locked.

Allocation to a boarding house is based on gender, age and the course the student is studying. House parents, as well as offering welfare support, also ensure that students adhere to the boarding rules, which are age-appropriate. Access to the internet is curtailed at bedtime. House parents will offer younger students greater guidance with respect to laundry routines, personal hygiene, and homework sessions, all of which help to show students, away from home for the first time, how to organise their daily lives. Boarders, other than those in their final year, attend supervised Evening Study Hall sessions on weekday evenings to keep them organised with their studies.
