2026/27 Fees Update
For the 2026/27 academic year, Ackworth School is proud to freeze our day fees and reduce boarding fees to just £37,500 per annum. In a climate where many families continue to face financial pressures, and where independent school fees have risen sharply across the sector, we have taken a deliberate and values-led decision to prioritise affordability and access.
Underpinned by careful long-term financial planning and a strong financial foundation, this decision reflects our commitment to widening opportunity while continuing to invest in excellent teaching, facilities and the holistic education that defines an Ackworth education.
