Hastingsbury Business & Enterprise College (formerly Hastingsbury Upper School and Community College) is a coeducational upper school for 13-18 year olds, located on Hill Rise in Kempston, Bedfordshire, England. The school forms part of an educational campus, which also includes a Child Development Centre and Ridgeway School.
The school is the only upper school to be located in the town of Kempston, and has been awarded specialist status as a Business & Enterprise College. Because of this the school now has facilities including a state of the art science department.
Bedford Borough Council has decided to implement a two-tier education system in the borough, meaning that Hastingsbury will be converted from an upper school to a secondary school, and take pupils from the age of 11. The changes are due to take effect from September 2015.
