Stopsley High School is located in a suburb of Luton named Stopsley. It is a mixed Comprehensive and Community College. In September 2002 Stopsley High became a designated Specialist Sports College. It was re-designated in 2007 with Music nominated as its second subject.[1]

The former regional sports centre, one of the biggest in Bedfordshire, was close to the school, but has been replaced by the Inspire Luton Sports Village located on Hitchin Rd.
