"Established in 1891, Ashbury College is an IB all-gender school, recognized as one of Canada’s top day and boarding schools for Grades 3–12. Our diverse student body, from over 60 countries, benefits from rigorous academics, 70+ co-curricular activities, a 100% university placement rate, and an average class size of 17. Ashbury’s mission is to inspire students to be intellectually curious, compassionate, and responsible global citizens in a dynamic learning environment."
"Academic excellence is the hallmark of Ashbury College, where innovative learning spaces and exceptional faculty and staff create unparalleled educational opportunities. Beyond the classroom, Ashbury offers boundless opportunities through a broad range of 70+ co-curricular activities, athletics, and artistic endeavours, including music, visual, and performing arts.
Classroom learning is further enriched by experiential opportunities such as outdoor education, community service and outreach, and our Summer Internship Program, which allows students to explore various career paths. Ashbury is also actively involved in the Round Square Program, offering students the chance to participate in their International Exchange Program. Additionally, we proudly offer the Duke of Edinburgh Award program."
"Historically, Ashbury was an Anglican school with a stunning stained-glass windowed chapel at its heart. Today, we proudly define ourselves as an inclusive community where every student feels a sense of belonging regardless of religious or cultural background. We celebrate individual differences and embrace diversity as one of our greatest strengths.
Once an all-boys institution, Ashbury has evolved into an all-gender school, boasting a nearly equal representation of male and female-identifying students. We firmly believe our diverse student body enriches our community and enhances everyone's educational experience."
"Ashbury College, founded in 1891 by George Penrose Woollcombe, began as a three-room boys' school on Wellington Street, Ottawa. It moved to Argyle Street in 1800 and its current 13-acre Rockcliffe Park location in 1910. The school was expanded in 1972 to accommodate over 300 students. In the years since, campus facilities have expanded to include, a gymnasium (1985), Napier Wing for the Junior School, theatre, computer lab (1994), Heather Gillin Residence for girls (1999), Maclaren Dining Hall, a double gymnasium, additional classrooms (2004), Matthews Boarding House for boys (2009), the Creative Learning Centre (2014), Maple Boarding House, Chris and Mary Taggart Fitness Centre (2016), and The Centre for Science and Innovation (2019).
Key milestones include the IB Programme (1974), co-education in the Senior School (1982), and Junior School (2010)."
"To truly experience the Ashbury advantage, a student must embody curiosity, compassion, and a sense of global responsibility. Our dynamic learning environment is brimming with opportunities designed to inspire those who seek inspiration, educate those eager to learn, and guide everyone toward their unique path to success. We stand by our motto—Probitas, Virtus, Comitas—which translates to honesty, courage, and kindness. Students who embrace these values will find that an Ashbury education offers tremendous benefits, fostering personal growth and academic excellence."
"Families that do not respect individual and cultural differences may find it challenging to integrate into a school community that includes students from over 60 countries worldwide. However, any family committed to quality education and a passion for learning will be warmly welcomed at Ashbury.
While our campus presents some challenges for students with physical disabilities, we strive to support individual learning styles. It's important to note that we do not offer extensive remedial academic support."
"Ashbury takes pride in its 100% IB Certificate completion rate and outstanding university placement record. Our graduates go on to attend top-tier institutions across Canada, the United States, and around the world. An education at Ashbury opens doors to a bright and promising future for our students."
"Ashbury is recognized by the local Ottawa community as a prestigious institution, offering students access to exceptional facilities and opportunities that surpass those available in the public school system. The diplomatic community in Ottawa views Ashbury as an internationally oriented school that supports culturally diverse students. Globally, families and educational agents regard Ashbury as a safe and welcoming community where children can thrive academically and personally as they pursue their studies."
"The location of Ashbury College in the heart of the Nation's Capital, Ottawa, provides a number of unique opportunities for our students including access to a multitude of museums, galleries, and learning centres such as the Global Centre for Pluralism. Ottawa is surrounded by a variety of greenspaces in which to learn and play. Ashbury actively engages our students with the greater Ottawa community through our charitable activities and our ongoing relationship with our local Indigenous partners."
"Given our rich history, many families are surprised to see our state-of-the-art education spaces including our Design Technology and Science labs, Arts studios and Music facilities, and Library and Learning Commons. Your child will have access to vibrant, modern learning facilities that are truly conducive to teaching innovation and learning."
"At Ashbury, our commitment to pluralism and belonging has driven significant changes in both policy and facilities. We have updated our school uniform and personal appearance policies to allow students greater freedom in expressing their identities. Students can now choose the uniform elements that best represent their gender, and we have removed restrictions on personal aesthetics.
In terms of facilities, we have made substantial structural improvements to our locker spaces, team areas, change rooms, and bathrooms to foster a more equitable and inclusive environment. Additionally, we have introduced a prayer and reflection room for students and staff, providing a dedicated space for contemplation and spiritual practice.
We have also reimagined our Student Success and Wellness program, enhancing both our staffing and the health and wellness spaces within the school. These changes reflect our dedication to creating a supportive and inclusive community for all."
"Ashbury's leadership is actively developing a new five-year strategic plan to steer our programmatic, operational, facilities development, and philanthropic initiatives. We anticipate sharing the details of this plan by the spring/summer of 2025.
At this stage, we can confirm that key educational facilities will be a focus of development, including a state-of-the-art digital production space and enhanced athletics facilities. We look forward to providing more information as soon as it becomes available."
