Kingsthorpe College (KC), formerly Kingsthorpe Community College and before that Kingsthorpe Upper School, is a secondary school with academy status in Kingsthorpe, Northampton. In September 2021 Kingsthorpe College joined the Orbis Education Trust, a Multi-Academy Trust, which also includes Southfield School in Kettering.[2] As of 2023, the school has approximately 1,400 students on roll, with 160 in the sixth form.
The school moved into a new building in 2007, and is located on a single site on Boughton Green Road. It was previously split on two sites, the other being next to Welford Road, which is on the A5199. The college has been a specialist sports college with a second specialism in history since 2006, after changing from a Language College and a former ICT College.
In 2013 Ofsted said the school required improvement. In 2015 and again in 2019 it was judged Good.[3] [4]
