Ackworth School is an historic boarding school located in the north of England. Founded as a Quaker school, the school has offered a progressive education to boys and girls since 1779. It is one of the oldest co-educational boarding schools in the world. The school maintains friendly relations with a number of other leading schools around the world, particularly those that share a similar ethos through the Friends Council network.
Situated in an idyllic green valley in the Yorkshire countryside, Ampleforth College has a proud history as the leading Catholic boarding school in the English Public School tradition. The school has long been considered the “Catholic Eton”, alluding to its status as a magnet for the children of the aristocratic classes and noble families. The school is famous for its beautiful campus, its embrace of the traditional country lifestyle, and for the eminent Amplefordians who have walked its hallowed halls. The school has undergone a significant recent transformation, seeking to restore its status as one of the world’s great boarding schools and a shining example of best practice in pastoral care and safeguarding. The school remains a bastion of the Roman Catholic elite, having been the preferred school for Roman Catholic boys since its foundation by the Benedictines in 1802.
