Welcome to Ashby School

Ashby school is an inclusive 11-18 provision that sits in the heart of our local community and prides ourself on putting students at the heart of all we do.

Our ethos statements echo this, encouraging our students to be ‘Empowered to Learn’ and to believe that ‘Anything is Possible’ through hard work and commitment. Through this ethos, we combine academic aspiration and the opportunities for our students to embrace our core values; to Show Respect, Accept Responsibility and Build Resilience to prepare them for a successful future. We want all our students to have a happy and successful learning experience and the confidence and qualifications to step into successful futures.

We hope our website tells you a little more about the work we do and that, when we work together, at Ashby School, ‘Anything is Possible’.
Dr Jude Mellor
Headteacher

Stay connected with what’s happening in our school by following us on Instagram for the latest updates!

We have been talking about Children`s Mental Health Week in school and our assemblies have been focusing on Belonging and the 5 to ways wellbeing.

The 5 ways to wellbeing can help us feel good and function well by helping us to:

-Connect with others and the world around us.

-Keep learning new things to help us to build our self esteem and resilience. Self esteem tells us how we feel about ourselves and resilience helps us to carry on when things feel tough.

-Take notice of what`s around us to help keep ourselves calm and comfortable, focusing on what we can see, hear and feel in our environment.

-Be active - we don`t have to be the next Olympian to be active but we do want to move our bodies every day to help keep our mind and body working nicely together.

Give - being kind and considerate is an easy way we can give back to others. When we give kindness it makes us feel good and it helps the person who we have cared for to feel good too.
