Transition to Ashby

Welcome to Ashby School!

We are delighted you are thinking of choosing us for your Key Stage 3 & 4 provision. If you are interested in joining our Sixth Form, you can find information about transition into Year 12 here.

At Ashby School, it is important that prospective students and their parents feel happy and well-informed about the choices they are making.

Our open evening for entry into Year 7 in 2026 was on Thursday 2nd October 2025.

If you’re thinking of starting your Year 7 journey with us in 2026 there’s a lot to look forward to.

Here you can watch our Open Evening presentation video and SEND transition video for Year 7 students.
