Nicholas Chamberlaine School is a coeducational secondary school with academy status, located in the town of Bedworth, Warwickshire, England. With approximately 1,700 boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 18, it is one of the largest schools in Warwickshire. The current Head Teacher is Louise Newman, who took over in September 2018.

It is named after Nicholas Chamberlaine (1632–1715) who was a local benefactor and a prominent figure in the history of Bedworth.

The school officially opened in 1953. The Headteacher was Mr. Skinner. At that time it was a comprehensive school.

The school became a specialist technology college before converting to academy status in

September 2013, when it became affiliated with the Griffin Schools Trust. The school had been classified as "failing" and placed under special measures in late 1999,[1] but thereafter began a turnaround.[2] In 2015 the school received a "good school" rating from Ofsted, its first such rating in 60 years.[3]
