We are a leading co-educational boarding and day school for 11-18 year olds situated on a green 500-acre campus between London and Cambridge. We were first established in 1862.
We have a dedicated Lower School for Years 7 and 8 - ‘a school within a school’. It offers a bespoke two-year Diploma course, small class sizes and a supportive environment. It is the perfect place for our youngest pupils to try new things and broaden their horizons.
We offer a wide range of subjects to inspire our pupils. We offer a mixture of GCSEs and IGCSEs, and in our Sixth Form, you can choose between A Levels or the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
We are well-known for our co-curricular offering; pupils can try their hand at over 100 activities. These range from rugby to beekeeping, archery to dance. Every year we host a Model United Nations conference attended by around 600 pupils from schools across the world.

One of the UK's leading independent, co-educational day and boarding schools, Bishop’s Stortford College is a wonderful place of learning in a beautiful setting on the edge of a market town between London and Cambridge.
It is a place large enough to provide an exceptional range of opportunities, yet small enough for each child to be known and valued.
Our love of life and learning enables pupils to grow into well-rounded, skilful, caring and confident people, equipped and ready for the adventures and opportunities life has to offer.
The Broxbourne School is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status located in Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, England.
Vision/Ethos:
Broxbourne is a very popular and successful school which achieves exceptionally high standards of work and behaviour from all its students. Our aim is to work in partnership with students and parents to raise students’ expectations and standards of achievement in a secure and supportive environment.
We make sure that the school is an orderly, tolerant and caring community which provides a safe and disciplined environment where staff and students work happily together to achieve success. Teaching and learning is exemplary and our well qualified and experienced staff work very hard with all students to achieve academic excellence.
Students benefit from an exceptional programme of extra-curricular activities. We set high expectations and encourage students to become reflective, creative, resilient and able to work independently or as part of a team so that they are ready to take their place as global citizens in a changing world.
History:
The school began life in 1959 with just under 50 pupils as a grammar school (Broxbourne Grammar School) under the headmastership of Ian Laydon. In 1969 the school became a comprehensive school. The school was converted to academy status in February 2012. It previously had been a community school under the direct control of Hertfordshire County Council. The school continues to coordinate with the council for admissions.
The school moved into a state-of-the-art purpose built new building in 2021. This multi-million pound project has massively improved teaching and learning facilities as well as enhanced community spaces for sports, music and drama. The school hosts many weekly lettings from local clubs and runs activity camps in the school holidays.
