Kettering Buccleuch Academy is part of United Learning, a large and growing group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

United Learning schools work as a team and achieve more my sharing than any single school could. Using our intranet site, United Hub, for example, we share resources and communication across sites, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits and, ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children succeed. It's an ethos we call 'the best in everyone'.

We warmly encourage visits to our school so that you can experience the unique ethos of Kettering Buccleuch Academy for yourself. If you would like to visit the academy, please contact Miss Millsop, PA to the Principal, on 01536 515644 or via email wendymillsop@kba.uk.
