Providing our children with the very best chances in life is a key priority for Corby’s growth.
At each level of education, we’re building on some excellent foundations that will ensure that Corby enhances its reputation for academic excellence. Brooke Weston is a perfect example of this, regularly topping national performance tables. Currently with 100% attaining A-C grades at GCSE, Brooke Weston is one of the top secondary schools in the country. Details of this can be found on www.schoolsnet.com.
We’re proud of all our schools and the £30m Corby Business Academy, designed by Foster + Partners and officially opened by the Prime Minister Gordon Brown in February 2009, underlines Corby’s commitment to excellent educational facilities.
2010 saw the commencement of work on the new £35m Tresham Institute of FE in Cottingham Road. The new facilities are due to open in September 2011.
The public schools of Oakham, Oundle and Uppingham can also be accessed within half an hour's drive of Corby. To help find local Private Schools, the Private Schools Directory gives details on entry expectations, performance and contact details. Click here to find out more.
