Faculty
The Head of 'Nico' - as it is affectionately known by townfolk, students and staff - is Lesley King, who turned the school around from Special Measures to one of the finest in the country. 194 teachers work at the school, with some from the USA, Australia and New Zealand.
NicholasChamberlaine – who's name is celebrated in the almshouses - was a 17th century rector of Bedworth and is still remembered as a generous benefactor.
To celebrate its benefactor, a NicholasChamberlaine memorial service is held every year in the nearby All Saint’s Church.
In further links with the area’s history, George Eliot’s father and brother (Robert and Isaac) were involved in advising the Chamberlaine charity in Bedworth and assisted with collecting rents and inspecting property.
