Image of Ashbourne Independent Sixth Form College, London Ashbourne Independent Sixth Form College:
Ashbourne College, in Kensington, west London, England, is an Independent Sixth Form College 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 in which each student's work is carefully monitored. 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.

Ashbourne College is situated in the very heart of Kensington (100 metres from Kensington Palace), west London. The college operates on two sites very close to each other. The main site is at 17 Old Court Place, Kensington. The other is on Kensington High Street but its entrance is on Young Street and is referred to as “Young Street”. If you cross High Street Kensington at the bottom of Old Court Place, turn right, and then take the first left on to Young Street, you will find the entrance just 20 metres down on the left hand side.
