Ashville College is one of the UK’s leading independent day and boarding schools for boys and girls aged 2 to 18.

Located in the historic spa town of Harrogate, near to the Yorkshire Dales, Ashville offers an outstanding education, both in and out of the classroom. All pupils are encouraged to become the ‘best versions of themselves’ within a happy, caring and supportive environment. We encourage excitement in learning through inspirational teaching and a challenging and varied academic programme for all age groups.

Boarding has been a central part of Ashville since it was founded in 1877. Today, we are home to about 90 boarders, comprising British, Forces and international pupils.
Ashville is known for its strong academic results and choice of subjects, first-class sporting reputation and facilities (our staff include former pros, such as New Zealand rugby international Gary Mercer, former GB Tennis player Sophie Cousins and Voise Winters of American NBA fame), and wide range of co-curricular opportunities, including music and drama. As well as GCSE, A Level and BTEC qualifications, we offer the US High School Diploma and a range of Advanced Placement (AP) courses, giving the edge to those wishing to go to American universities.
