Ivanhoe Specialist Technology College (also known as Ivanhoe College) is a secondary school located in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England. It takes in 11-14 year olds (known as Year 7s-9s) from several primary schools around the local area. It was established in 1954 as the first purpose-built high school in Leicestershire. The school built a £2,000,000 science and graphics building, know as the Science Block. It was constructed from between 2004 - 2005. An elevator was built to the rear of the building in early 2007, costing roughly £1,000,000. The elevator once flooded during construction, on a half term.
