Bosworth Independent College
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bosworth College is an independent school established on the 17th of November 1977, in Northampton, England. It is well-known for its students' high achievement in external exams. In 2006, 90% of the college's A-level results were of C grade or higher and it is not rare for candidates to gain anything up to five A-levels at A grade.
As of 2006, the principal of Bosworth College was Mr Michael McQuin and the vice-principal a Mrs Liz Carter. Bosworth is popular for its relatively small class sizes and focus on independent study times.
However it is also known for its perhaps shameless photography of the nearby park, the Northampton Racecourse to be placed in its brochure and website to make it look as if set in beautiful parkland. In fact the two main buildings are on an extremely busy urban dual carriageway.
[edit] Students
Due to the independent status of the college, a high proportion of students are from overseas. Bosworth prides itself on a diverse mix of student ethnicities and actively promotes cultural integration. The college has also been known to attract a wide range of students from differing economic backgrounds. Some of the college's alumni include the children of state officials, film stars and international royalty.
