Ashville College in Harrogate has launched a reimagined pre-university Sixth Form experience – inspired and shaped by its pupils.
‘Six @ Ashville’ aims to redefine the school’s Sixth Form experience through a range of new and innovative courses, opportunities and freedom.
The completely renovated Sixth Form Centre aims to provide pupils with new pathways and a new philosophy.
The concept is tailored to meet the changing and diverse needs of today’s 16 – 18-year-olds and the importance of preparing them for the world of work.
Six @ Ashville is being introduced to complement the redeveloped Sixth Form Centre, providing a cafe and social hub, a collaborative study zone, “academic buzz” space and areas for individual study.
Head of Ashville, Rhiannon Wilkinson, said:
“Our new Sixth Form Centre is a space with a serious WOW factor which has inspired us to reimagine what pupils are looking for from their post-GCSE education pathway.
“Designed to empower, inspire and expand horizons, our new Six @ Ashville is fresh, exciting and built around the needs of today’s Sixth Formers as they look to progress their lives with opportunities and additional qualifications that really make a difference.
“Our dynamic curriculum offers an innovative and flexible way to learn with the spaces and philosophy tuned in to provide what we believe is a transformative Sixth Form experience.
“Added to our heritage, the many opportunities we offer and our strong sense of community, we have a winning formula for success.”
Ashville’s 70-acre campus has undergone a major £1m modernisation in the last year alone, with Phase 2 of the Campus Masterplan focusing on the re-design of the estate and seeing the Sixth Form Centre benefit from a purpose-designed upgrade.
The development features a wide range of enhancements designed by education specialist architectural designers, Envoplan - all with the aim of impacting positively on pupils’ wellbeing as well as accommodating new technology and ways of learning.
The school is offering prospective parents and pupils an insight into the new facilities and the Six @ Ashville concept at a Sixth Form Open Evening on Thursday 16th October.
