For over 120 years, Ascham has provided a strongly academic, liberal education with an emphasis on intellectual rigour, personal responsibility and commitment to others. The School, which is independent of any religious affiliation, educates girls from Preschool to Year 12. An Ascham education is designed to prepare girls for tertiary studies and for life beyond school. Through its long boarding history, the School maintains strong links with rural communities. It actively promotes ties with universities and other schools overseas. It is proud of its traditions and honours the efforts and contributions of those who have provided the intellectual, educational and physical advantages the School enjoys. At the same time, it demonstrates a capacity for change and for continuing to expand the care and support it provides within the School community and beyond. In addition to a thorough grounding in core academic subjects, the School provides many extracurricular activities. In senior years, Ascham uses a modified version of the Dalton Plan to achieve its objective of developing organised, independent, self-motivated, life-long learners. Located in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, Ascham is one of Australia's leading independent, non- selective day and boarding schools.
