Stradbroke Business and Enterprise College is a state-funded secondary school for 11-16 year-olds in Stradbroke, Suffolk, United Kingdom. With just 346 students on roll (as of 2006) it is the smallest Business and Enterprise College (BEC). Founded in 1953 as a secondary modern comprehensive school on the southern edge of the village, Stradbroke High School served a catchment covering almost 400 square miles including the parishes of Athelington & Horham, Fressingfield, Laxfield, Mendham, Wilby, and Worlingworth. As of 2006 this represents a catchment population of some 7500 people. The third head teacher (Dave Shorten) came to the school in 1990 and successfully lead the bid to achieve specialist school status as a BEC in September 2005. With the new status came a change of name and a new uniform and new logo.

One of just three BECs in Suffolk, the College was made the county hub of the Schools' Enterprise Education Network in May 2006 and one month later the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust appointed its Director of Specialism as National Lead Practitioner Coordinator for Business & Enterprise.

Shorten retired in July 2006 and was succeeded by Perry Linsley, a deputy head from Bungay High School.

The College's best-known alumnus is television journalist Amelia Reynolds.
