At Ashville there are many opportunities to lead the community. Heads of School, Red Tie and Green Tie prefects and Captain roles all provide the opportunity to develop key leadership skills for the future. Wellbeing Ambassadors and Peer Mentors offer specific opportunities or you may wish to lead a co-curricular club.
HOUSE SYSTEM
The House system forms a central part of Ashville life providing another level of belonging within the community learning the value of teamwork and celebrating yours and others' success.
You will be part of Duckworth, Ellis, Riverdale or Windermere and may wish to apply to be a House Captain. House meetings, events and tournaments produce healthy competition and culminate in the Rigg Cup. House Music at Harrogate's Royal Hall, House Sport Tournaments and House Drama, House Photography and House Debating form part of the programme.
GLOBAL, NATIONAL AND LOCAL TRIPS CALENDAR
Ashville offers a wide range of global opportunities for you to immerse yourself in learning. Trips abroad often form the highlights of your time at Ashville, and for good reason. They push learning out of the classroom and into the real world, turning abstract concepts into tangible experiences. Our Trips Programme is curated carefully to provide choice and value.
Recent trips and experiences have included:
- Immersive Cultural Tour to Cambodia
- South Africa Sports Tour
- Music Tour to the Netherlands
- Languages Trip to Munich
- CERN
- Geography Trip to Iceland

DUKE OF EDINBURGH AWARD
Ashville has a reputation for academic excellence. However, the world ahead for our pupils will not be based on academic performance alone. Employers seek employees who will add value in the role, work well with others, be flexible, use their initiative and be resilient. These transferable skills are increasingly important, if not essential.
Future Ready addresses this need but perhaps more importantly provides a vocabulary and understanding that enables our pupils to recognise and articulate their strengths, build their personal confidence and optimise their skills and interests to build a successful, fulfilled future.
