Brooke House is a residential, co-educational College. Academic demands are high and the work exacting but the atmosphere is pleasant and informal, preparing students for both the responsibilities and freedoms of university and adult life.
Tuition is in small groups with an average of six students in a class. A wide range of A-levels is offered, both two year courses and one year re-take courses. One year and two year GCSE courses are provided in up to ten subjects. Private study takes place under supervision to enable students to gain maximum benefit from their courses and there is a three hour examination every Saturday morning. Progress is also monitored regularly by interviews with senior staff.
There are residential places for approximately 40 girls and 50 boys and the college also accepts day students.
Brooke House is a large, elegant Georgian mansion standing in grounds of almost two acres. The facilities, apart from tutorial rooms, include the students' private study room, reference library, common rooms, laboratories, art complex, launderette and recreation building which caters for table tennis, darts, pool and television. Residential houses are on the Campus, except the girls' house, Bagatelle, which is a short walk away.
The College is situated in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. It is an hour by train from London, and very close to the M1 and M6 motorways.
Brooke House is Recognised as Efficient by the British Accreditation Council, is a member of CIFE (the Conference for Independent Further Education), and is recognised by the Department of Education.
