Scarborough College is an independent day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 3–18 years[1] in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. It was founded in 1898 and opened in 1901. The school has been an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School since June 2006 – it offers the IB Diploma Programme in place of A-levels.

History

The foundation stone for Scarborough College was laid in 1898, and the school opened on 18 September 1901. The building was designed by Edwin Cooper and later became Grade II listed.[2] By 1907, the school had 70 boys. Following the German Navy's Raid on Scarborough, Hartlepool and Whitby in December 1914, the headmaster decided Scarborough was too unsafe for pupils so the school evacuated to Park Hotel, Keswick for a year. After the outbreak of World War II, in 1940 the school was commandeered for RAF training and the pupils were evacuated to Marske Hall, Swaledale, until 1946.[3]

A considerable fire took place at the school on 10 October 1961, burning down the library and cupola, which were both rebuilt. In 1972, the school became coeducational, accepting girls for the first time. The first two girls to attend the school were Lindsey Grimstone and Vanessa Gibbon. In 2000, Lisvane Prep School moved from Sandybed Lane to the main school site on Filey Road. The school adopted the International Baccalaureate in place of A-levels in 2006.[4] In 2012, Scarborough College and local prep school Bramcote School merged, and Lisvane was renamed to Bramcote.[3] The outgoing head of Bramcote School, Dan Davey, became the new headmaster of Bramcote Junior School.[5]

Pre-School and Prep school

Scarborough College's Prep School was moved on to the main campus of the college on Filey Road in 2002. It is currently housed in a modern, purpose-built building, separate from the college's historic main building. The Prep School was formerly known as Lisvane, but was renamed Scarborough College Junior School in 2010. In 2012, the college merged with local preparatory school Bramcote, and was renamed as Bramcote Junior School. The outgoing head of the prep school is Dan Davey.[6]

The Pre-School, known locally also as Little Owls, is based in part of the new purpose-built building for the Prep school. However, in 2014 it moved to the old premises of Bramcote School across the road. Little Owls is currently led by Jackie Hunter.

Senior school and sixth form

The senior school is housed in the college's main building. The campus also consists of a separate Science and ICT block, a sports hall, astroturf and performaing arts theatre. Pupils study a mix of GCSE and IGCSE qualifications in Years 10 and 11. Classes are taught in well equipped classrooms and there are a wide range of sport, ICT, music and drama facilities.

For the sixth form there is the provision of a study centre, private ICT facilities, a separate dining area and cafe and a common room. The current Head of Sixth Form is Heather Ramsay.[6]
