The College of National Security[1][2][3] (also referred to as the National College of Cyber Security[4][5][6][7][8]) is a proposed cyber security school for 16-19 year-olds, scheduled to open in 2018 at Bletchley Park.[1][2][3]

The initiative to create the school emerged from Qufaro,[4] a not-for-profit organisation created by representatives of Raytheon, BT Security, the Institute of Information Security Professionals, and National Museum of Computing.[2][3]

The college will be located in Block G of Bletchley Park which was being renovated in 2017 with funding by the Bletchley Park Science and Innovation Centre. (Bletchley Park Trust has no involvement in the cyber security college.)[9]
