February 2025 About us Worksop College and Ranby House; one community set across two schools. We are proud to be a broad ability school, educating children from 2-18. With a focus firmly on progress, we recognise that every child has their own set of skills and abilities, whether
it be academic, sporting, musical or otherwise. We believe that education is about more than the flight towards academic success, but about human flourishing. We want our students to be the very best version of themselves. If they are destined to attend an
established University, here is where they will flourish. If they are an outstanding sportsperson, here is where they will hone their skills. Perhaps they are a talented artist or musician, here is where they’d perfect their craft, but if these talents are
