| Welcome to Ashbourne Independent Sixth Form College in London |
| Ashbourne is one of many private sixth form colleges in London, specialising in pre-university education
at GCSE and A level. Following the university ethos, the college combines
informality and an adult approach to education, at both A level and GCSE, with a disciplined system
each student's work is carefully monitored. It aims to establish strong
academic foundations, achieve outstanding examination results and engender a
mature and independent attitude vital for taking advantage of life's
opportunities. |

| Founded in 1981, Ashbourne independent (private) sixth form college in London is situated in the very heart
of Kensington. The college is fully co-educational and considers its
primary strength to be its small size, coupled with its friendly and caring
approach, which differs to many other colleges in London. No student is allowed to become lost in the crowd. All courses, whether at A level or GCSE, are
organised around a tutorial system in much smaller groups than are permitted in
other institutions. This provides a student-centred approach, enabling tutors
to engage directly with each individual. No assumptions are made about a
student's previous knowledge, and understanding is established in a
step-by-step manner. The teaching style aims to be positive, encouraging and
sympathetic to the challenges which students encounter. |
