Traditional boarding prep schools provide time for a full education and here at Aysgarth we pride ourselves on the fact that the boys spend half of the day in academic pursuits leaving the other half for creative, physical and enjoyment based activities.

Aysgarth aims to excel at providing an enjoyable, inspiring and relevant education, which is the best all-round preparation for its pupils to thrive at the major public schools and beyond.

Aysgarth School was founded in 1877 by The Reverend Clement T. Hales.

Aysgarth School is situated in Newton-le-Willows, Bedale at the gateway of Wensleydale in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Just 10 mins off of the A1, the School is conveniently accessible daily from places such as Catterick Garrison, Ripon and Northallerton.
