Situated in a beautiful rural setting, its 10-acre campus is on the Nottinghamshire-Derbyshire border, just off the A52.

The school's range of Georgian and Victorian buildings sit next to up-to-date and modern buildings and pupils are able to take advantage of all it has to offer through the strong collaborative partnership between pupils, parents and school.

But why choose private education?

Investing in a private education will ensure your child is nurtured every step of the way. Parents and staff work together at Ockbrook to help children develop into happy, balanced individuals.

The school has high expectations of itself and its pupils, who achieve consistently excellent GCSE and A-level results.

Entrance and scholarship examinations for Ockbrook will be held on Wednesday, January 23, and the next open day is on Saturday, March 2, although the school welcomes visitors at any time under its open-door policy.
