Brooklands College is a further education college in Weybridge and Ashford, England.

In August 2007 Brooklands merged with Spelthorne College in Ashford.[2] In 2016 the Ashford Campus moved to a new building and the former Spelthorne College site was demolished. The Weybridge campus is in the grounds of Hugh F. Locke King's historic mansion at Brooklands;[3] the Ashford campus is adjacent to Sir Thomas Knyvett School, Ashford.

The college provides courses for those leaving school after GCSEs, vocational subjects, A-levels, apprenticeships, and professional courses for adults including foundation degrees.

There are approximately 5,000 students attending the college; of these about 2,500 are full-time.
