John Leggott College is a sixth form college on West Common Lane, in Old Brumby, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, England. The earliest predecessor to the college was known as Scunthorpe Technical High School on Cole Street, run by Lindsey County Council Education Committee, based in Lincoln, although the Scunthorpe Divisional Executive was based on Wells Street. There were 500 boys and girls, and the headmaster was John R. Leggott BSc. It had a sixth form. The more technical aptitudes it focussed on were of great help to Scunthorpe's nearby steel industry, the main employer at the time and for many years afterwards. The college was founded in 1964 as John Leggott Grammar School with 600 pupils aged 11–18. The sixth form college was established in September 1968 due to a reorganisation of education in Scunthorpe. It is commonly known as JLC and now has more than 2000 pupils. In 1971 there were 500 sixth formers, By 1973 it was run by the Borough of Scunthorpe Education Committee, in April 1974 it was run by the Scunthorpe Division of Humberside Education Committee, then in April 1996 by North Lincolnshire.
