Founded in 1877, Ashville College is a leading independent day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 3-18 years. It is located in the North Yorkshire spa town of Harrogate.
Ashville College is a co-educational day and boarding school for 870 children aged 3-18. Ashville has a proud past and an even brighter future, yet our ethos and values remain loyal to our Methodist traditions, where each child is known and nurtured within a caring, safe, and supportive environment.
Ashville has a clear focus on academic excellence, enabling pupils to be prepared for life in an increasingly complex world, without ever losing sight of the individual child, their talents, and their wider development. Our commitment to an inclusive education, where individuals are valued wherever their talents lie, is at the heart of all we do.
We develop young people who are “the best versions of themselves”. We nurture and equip our young people for the challenges of the future, encouraging a global perspective and a digital fluency where adaptability, creativity, resilience, and critical self-reflection are key. Problem-solving skills developed both inside and outside the classroom and an ability to engage and actively listen to others is what sets Ashville pupils apart. Pupils face a lifetime of learning as they prepare and adapt for professions that may not yet have even been invented.
Historic buildings, dating back to 1860, sit alongside 21st-century facilities, ensuring that pupils benefit from the most up-to-date learning environments without losing a sense of heritage. Plenty of green space and garden areas also feature around the campus.
Here at Ashville, we know that selecting a school for your child(ren) is an extremely important decision and so we aim to make the process of applying to Ashville as smooth as possible.
Ashville values each child as an individual so we understand that every family has different needs and questions. We are here to help each family through this process as you begin your Ashville journey.
