The East Northamptonshire College or TENC for short is a consortium of secondary schools in East Northamptonshire that offer Post-16 education.
The Consortium consists of four secondary schools, Rushden Community College based in Rushden, The Ferrers School based in Higham Ferrers, Manor School based in Raunds and Huxlow Science College based in Irthlingborough. The college provides free transport to all the different schools so all students can get to individual lessons.
The College is now in parntnership with Prince William School (PWS) based in Oundle
Because there are four different schools, the college can offer a greater range of courses; many more than a normal Sixth Form College. This is seen in the college's rapid growth in recent years. As the College is split between four schools, the government's inspectors - Ofsted do not inspect the College as a whole but the four individual schools sixth forms when secondary education is inspected. This then gives four different reports on how the sixth form is being managed at different schools. The College is officially based at Rushden Community College, where the assistant headteacher and administrative staff are also based.
