Kimberley School (formally Kimberley Comprehensive School) is a secondary school in Kimberley, Nottinghamshire, England. It has academy status.

The school has links with another in Burkina. The schools in Burkina Faso, like in England, are free but the government cannot afford to deliver this assurance to all the Burkinabé children. Unlike England you are much more likely to receive an education if you are a boy.

Some Year 8's from Kimberley School have taken part in the BBC's school report project, for the past few years. They have been visited by such local personalities as: Francis Finn, local radio presenter from BBC Radio Nottingham.

Kimberleys school family is Awsworth Primary, Gilthill Primary, Hollywell Primary, Horsendale Primary, Kimberley Primary, Larkfields Junior, Larkfields Infant and Mornington Primary. Details of the admission rules to the school and its sixth form are published. However the school has room for 1500 pupils.
