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.

Bosworth Values
Our aim is to nurture and educate every student in our community whatever his or her ability, culture, ethnicity or social background.  We seek to encourage each student to grow in confidence, to cultivate a life-long curiosity for the world around us, to communicate with enthusiasm, work collaboratively and contribute to our community with commitment and creativity.  We aim to promote academic excellence tempered by care and concern for those around us.

At Bosworth we understand that parents are looking for two key aspects from a school; the support to enable your child to progress to the best possible university and course for them, balanced by a nurturing environment which supports students to develop socially, whilst being happy.

At Bosworth, we are confident that we are able to fulfil both of these aspects whilst providing a third dimension of having our students study in a multicultural environment. Multiculturism is the reality in the world in which we all live in today. Studying at Bosworth causes students to understand and respect each other’s backgrounds and points of view. This is something which they will find incredibly useful in their future lives. It also makes lessons at Bosworth far more interesting than at a school with one predominant nationality. Each student arrives with their own view of what is ‘normal’ and the discussions which ensue once all of these ideas are expressed in one space is truly fascinating.

We understand that to achieve their potential students need excellent teaching and individual support. Our students benefit from high levels of attention from their teachers, their Personal Tutor and their House Parents. All of these people set high expectations for our students, which they therefore share. The encouragement provided by all staff to students helps them to attain their goals. Our academic programmes offer significant flexibility from so that students are able to follow the best path for them through their studies at Bosworth and on to university.
