Duchy College Whole School Open Morning - Friday 26 September 2025, 9.30am-12pm

As we prepare to expand our co-ed provision and change our name from September 2026 – join us for our very first Duchy College Open Morning!

We’ll be opening the doors to our family of schools on Friday 26 September including our pre-school, prep school, senior school and sixth form. It will be the perfect introduction to our family of schools – particularly if you haven’t visited before.

The Open Morning takes place on a normal teaching day which is important to us, as it means you get to experience the vibrant atmosphere; observe how students engage in their learning; gain a deeper insight into the curriculum and the types of projects your child would be working on.

You’ll also get to look round the facilities across our 22-acre campus in the heart of Harrogate.

Here’s an idea of what to expect on the day:

  • Meet our Principal, Heads of Schools, teaching staff and wonderful pupils
  • Tour our school including academic, extra-curricular and social facilities
  • Observe lessons and activities taking place
  • Ask questions and find out practical information about joining all areas of Duchy College – pre-school, prep school, senior school and sixth form
  • Hear specialist curriculum talks relevant to the different curriculum stages:
    • Pre-School (2-4 years)
    • Reception and Prep School (4-11 years)
    • Year 7 – co-ed entry from September 2026 
    • GCSE Curriculum
    • A levels – A Stepping Stone to University (6th Form) – co-ed entry from September 2026

 

“Excellent Open Morning. All the information was relevant and very informative. Our pupil tour guide was excellent and clearly loves the school!”
