}}Brookfield Community School is an academy school located on Chatsworth Road (A619) in the west of Chesterfield, Derbyshire. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection judged it to be 'inadequate'.[4]

Admissions

Brookfield Community School is a comprehensive secondary school which caters for around 1300 students between the ages 11–18 (Years 7-13), including approximately 300 sixth formers.[5]

Academic performance

In the data for the year 2016/2017, the school had a Progress 8 score of -0.14, indicating that pupils at the end of Key Stage 4 had made less progress, on average, than pupils across England who got similar results at the end of Key Stage 2. The same data shows 57% of pupils achieving a GCSE grade 5 or above in English & Maths.[6]

History

Brookfield Community School's history stretches back to the founding of the Chesterfield Grammar School in 1598.[7] This school taught boys throughout the 17th and 18th century, until its closure in 1832. In 1845, the school was restarted in a new building (which remains on Sheffield Road today, and is now part of Chesterfield College), expanding to a size of around 500 in 1928.[8] Additional land on Storrs Road (on the west side of the town) was acquired in the 1930s, but minimally used due to lack of funds and the Second World War. In 1949, work began on the levelling of playing fields on the site, which was opened in 1953.[9]

The present site of Brookfield (on Chatsworth Road/Brookside, adjacent to the Storrs Road playing fields) was opened for Chesterfield School in 1967.[10] Following the Education Act 1944, the school became a state-sponsored grammar school.

Brookfield Community School was formed in 1991, following the closure of the grammar school in a re-organisation of schools in Chesterfield,[11] On 1 April 2011, Brookfield Community School officially gained academy status.[12]
