Culture at the heart of learning

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

Last night, our magnificent cast of our upcoming musical Les Misérables, were joined by Ashby Youth Theatre to deliver a truly unforgettable concert ‘Do You Hear the People Sing? – A Celebration of Les Misérables.’  From the powerful vocals, to the moving dramatic moments, every performer gave their all and the audience loved every second.  Thank you to all of our performers, everyone that worked so hard to make it happen and to all of the audience for watching.  The concert has us even more excited than ever for show week, when our full production of Les Misérables takes to the stage (28th-31st January).  If last night was anything to go by, this is a performance you won’t want to miss!  Tickets are on sale now – secure yours today!  We can’t wait to welcome you back and bring the full story to life.

Ashby School Colour Run 2025!  This was our 2nd year of doing the colour run, and the first with 3 year groups taking part. The weather was perfect for the event with over 600 students taking part. Staff and students had a brilliant end to the week, all be it a little messy.  We were raising money for the @lch_charity (Lifting Children’s Hopes), who support children to go on school trips and day trips, as well as funding hobbies for them. They have given us over £4000 of support in the last 12 months.  We were hoping to smash last years donations of £3,323, and we’re really happy to say that we raised (including Gift Aid) a huge £6,259 – we absolutely smashed last year’s amount. The CEO of LCH said ‘’I am blown away by the amazing effort of so many of your wonderful students, the school should be incredibly proud.’’.  #AshbySchool #ColourRun #LCHCharity
