Harington School

Oakham, Rutland County Council · LE15 6RP

Harington School is a state sixth-form college in Oakham, where every one of its roughly 330 pupils is studying at post-16 level. Founded in 2015, it is a comparatively young and small institution, focused entirely on A-level and EPQ study rather than the broader age range of a typical secondary. The pupil-to-teacher ratio of around 19 reflects a streamlined, sixth-form-only environment, and the school is inspected by Ofsted. It suits students ready for an academic, college-style stage of their education under headteacher Oliver Teasel.
