About the school

Best state boarding schools UK

Hockerill state boarding school in Hertfordshire enjoys a rich and varied heritage. Originally established in the early 1850s, it was a teacher training college until 1978. It re-opened in 1980 as a co-educational boarding school until 1994 when it became grant maintained Hockerill Anglo-European School. 1998 proved to be a defining year, as the school underwent a dramatic transformation into Hockerill Anglo-European College. In the process it:- became one of the country’s first specialist language colleges; offered a sixth form provision for the first time; chose the International Baccalaureate Diploma programme as the only course of sixth form study. Progress and innovation Since then the College has doubled in size, with over 700 students around a third of whom are boarders from Europe and beyond. There are over 50 cosmopolitan, carefully selected, teachers – most at least bilingual – and double that number including support staff. We pioneered language school-university partnerships when we joined the University of Nottingham in training future language teachers. Equally significantly our close working and cultural links with a network of partner schools throughout Europe offers all our students the opportunity for regular visits and prolonged study abroad. Academy Status Hockerill Anglo-European College were pleased to gain Academy status in Febuary 2011 and became top 10 state boarding schools UK.
