What is Ampleforth like?

Ampleforth is a very successful Roman Catholic boarding school set in a stunningly beautiful rural location in Yorkshire. Catholicism is treated very seriously at Ampleforth where a strong Benedictine ethos underpins the life of the school and seeks to provide students with a spiritual and moral compass for life. Ampleforth is not hugely selective academically and results reflect the broad intake. The school is under the leadership of Peter Roberts (former Head of King’s School Canterbury).

The school offers a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities and a genuine all-round education. Drama is well catered for with a purpose-built theatre and a new Performing Arts Centre. There is a strong emphasis on the teaching of Christian Theology throughout the school. Regardless of which A Levels are studied, all students take a compulsory course in Christian Living.

How can I apply to Ampleforth?

Ampleworth welcomes around 30 new students into the 6th form each academic year with offers made on the basis of an interview and reference. Students are also expected to achieve at least 3 x Grade 5’s and 2 x Grade 6’s at GCSE.
