Open Days & Events

During the 2023-24 academic year, we are holding a series of open events aimed at pupils joining us for the following Academic Year.

Acorns and Prep School Open Doors events

Join us for our Open Doors morning at Acorns Pre-Prep and Prep School for pupils aged 2-11.

Whether you are exploring options for your child at the start of their learning journey, or considering a change of school for your child who is at a later stage, we welcome you to visit us to discover what makes Ashville so special.

There are two Open Doors events taking place on:

Wednesday 25 October 2023

Open Morning

Join us at our Open Morning and discover why there’s never been a better time to join Ashville.

We are an all-through co-educational independent day and boarding school that caters for pupils aged 2 to 18, so whether you are looking for a place in our Acorns Pre-Prep, Prep, and Senior School or looking to secure a spot in our Sixth Form.

This event, taking place on Saturday 9 March 2024, will provide you with lots of information about the Ashville experience as you prepare to support your child’s transition to the next step in their learning journey. You will have the chance to hear more about what we have to offer across Acorns Pre-Prep, Prep School, Senior School and Sixth Form.

There are also a number of events for prospective and registered pupils looking for a place for Year 7:

Scholarship applicants’ day – Friday 26 January 2024

Scholarships & Bursaries

Scholarships are awarded at the discretion of the Headteacher, for excellence in academic performance, Art, Drama, Music and Sport. As well as receiving a discount in fees, and acting as ambassadors for the school, scholars take part in an extensive programme of events devised to enrich their learning and knowledge.

We also offer a select number of means-tested bursaries, including a discount for Armed Forces families. For more details, speak to our Admissions team.
