About Ratcliffe College

Ratcliffe College is a thriving co-educational boarding and day school for 850 students aged 3–18, with boarding available from age 11 to 18. The College is set within 200 acres of beautiful grounds seven miles north of Leicester and within easy reach of airports and motorways. We are a Catholic school where children of all denominations and faiths are very welcome and we place great emphasis on the development of the whole person. Examination results are excellent – For the last 3 years, Ratcliffe College was within the top 5% of schools nationally for students' progress at A Level. In 2018, 40% A Level grades were at A* or A grade. At the top end, 15% of students achieved grades of A, A, A* or better. All students who applied for university courses gained places with the overwhelming majority securing their first choice, many of which are coveted courses at Russell Group and Oxbridge universities, with 10% attending Durham University this year. For the first time in the School's history, the last ISI inspection judged the School to be "Excellent" in all nine categories.
