From the Headmaster

Thank you for visiting Ashville College's website. It is a pleasure to introduce you to our unique school and the very special educational experience we provide.

There are four factors which help to explain our ethos which are outlined below:

• Our purpose is to develop the broadest range of an individual's talents to their optimum. Academic standards are a priority, but we know that students will only sustain those standards when they have rich and varied lives. Thus we are proud of the breadth of our curriculum and the extent of our extra-curricular provision.
  
• We delight in the diversity of our students - boys and girls from a multitude of backgrounds and many nations. They bring a richness of experience and enthusiasm to our community and challenge us to find a niche in which every individual may excel and be valued for what they achieve, be it academic, aesthetic, spiritual, sporting or social.
  
• Self-confidence enables them to tackle new circumstances and challenges, yet it also generates the humility to acknowledge the success of others, the compassion to support those who encounter difficulties and the maturity to take responsibility for themselves.
  
• We expect our students to leave as complete young adults, secure in themselves, focussed on a path for the future and with the confidence to make wise decisions that enhance their lives and the lives of those around them .

This website explains how we achieve these aims. I hope you enjoy browsing this site and look forward to welcoming you to the school.
