About

Our mission at Westville House School is to prepare pupils for confident and fulfilled adult lives and to make a positive impact on the world. We achieve this through four pillars: academic achievement, skills, interests and values. Together, these pillars prepare our pupils for life beyond school, encouraging, nurturing and challenging them to maximise their potential.

Westville children have a strong record of achievement and regularly attain prestigious scholarships to local, selective and non-selective independent senior schools. We are proud of the exceptional pass rate for entry to Bradford Grammar School, Ermysted's Grammar School and Skipton Girls School.

Leaders and managers at all levels in the school prioritise the school's mission of promoting family values and nurturing happy children. Leaders have designed an extra-curricular programme which offers a range of activities and promotes pupil wellbeing.

Independent Schools Inspectorate 2024 Inspiring teaching and an extensive co-curricular programme combine to provide our pupils with an exceptional array of opportunities in music, sports, the arts and much more. We offer a classical, high-quality, all-around education with a forward-looking and exciting approach to learning.
