Ackworth School was founded in 1779 by John Fothergill on behalf of The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) and the School Committee (or Board of Governors) is still accountable to this body. The School was established for Quaker boys and girls and the Quaker Christian ethos, with its emphasis on quiet reflection and the search for God within oneself and within others, lies at the heart of the School.

Periods of reflective silence form part of each day, during Morning Meeting and before meals for example, and each Thursday there is a short silent Meeting for Worship for the whole School. On Sunday morning boarders attend Quaker Meeting for Worship unless they wish to attend another place of worship. The importance of respect for others and honesty at all times emphasised by the Quaker faith helps to produce a calm, friendly atmosphere which is supportive and reassuring for young people.

The majority of pupils are from non-Quaker families and about 10% come from other countries.

The school is situated on the edge of Bradford in a very pleasant 17 acre green site. In addition to the buildings housing the Preparatory school, the main school and the Foster Beaver College, the site includes a Sports Hall, an artificial pitch and all sports facilities including a swimming pool, tennis and netball courts, hockey pitches.

A brand new State of the Art Preparatory School, which is linked to the Senior School, opened after the February half term with the official opening during April, 2008.

Pleasant gardens and trees combine to create a very pleasant and peaceful environment for this successful school.

The school offers a wide curriculum and by maintaining high academic standards we gain a pass rate in Public Examinations approaching 100% .

The atmosphere of the school is created on the basis of a community where pupils are treated as individuals and the discipline of an orderly life comes from within. Pupils are encouraged in the belief that with rights come responsibilities. T
