Brooke House College
School summary
Brooke House College is a small independent boarding and day school in Market Harborough, taking pupils from age 11 through to 19. Its profile is unusual: with 105 pupils on roll yet 123 in the sixth form, the college is heavily weighted towards senior and post-16 study rather than the lower years. It is co-educational and offers GCSEs and A-levels, drawing both day and boarding families. Parents should note that while the Independent Schools Inspectorate judged the school's quality of education "sound" and personal development "good", its most recent compliance requirements were not met.

Teaching & academics
Teaching follows a conventional GCSE and A-level pathway. At GCSE, Physical Education and Sports Studies, Geography and English Language are among the more popular choices, while Mathematics stands out at A-level. With only around 2.9 per cent of pupils on SEN support, the cohort recorded here is small, so individual results can swing year-group figures considerably.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, sixth-form-heavy boarding college that may suit families wanting senior-phase study, though the unmet compliance finding is worth examining closely before applying.
That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.
Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
