Welcome to Ashby School

Ashby is a school with a proud history and a strong position in the local community as an established 11-18 provision and we know that all members of our school community are benefitting from the opportunities this has created.

Ashby School prides itself on putting students at its heart. We want all our students to have a happy and successful learning experience and are committed to ensuring that all students fulfil their academic potential. However, at Ashby, we realise that school success is about more than academic standards and offer our students a range of opportunities to enable them to embrace our core values. These encourage students to show Respect, accept Responsibility and build Resilience to prepare them for a successful future.

Education has faced many challenges over the last few years, all of which have impacted students enormously in many ways. We continue to work hard to ensure that students have the opportunity to embrace their education so that school can be the happy, harmonious and supportive environment in which our students can thrive.

Everyone in the Ashby School community is committed to achieving this, because, at Ashby, ‘Anything is Possible’.

French Play Performance ‘Action!’ – Thursday 19 November, lesson 5.

We have been lucky enough to secure a visit from Onatti Productions to perform a play for our year 9 and 10 learners of French in the target language on Thursday 19th November in lesson 5.

This will be a unique experience to watch a play performed by native speakers of the French language and for students to find that they can understand the whole story, even with limited vocabulary. The performance is carefully constructed to challenge all students and made easy to understand using actions and visual aids, boosting their confidence and supporting their language learning journey. A summary of this year’s plot is available below.

This opportunity is open to all those students in year 9 and 10 studying French. This is a great enrichment experience and, as with any trip to the theatre, carries an additional cost.

Tickets cost £2.60 and are available via WisePay, the deadline for payment is Friday 16th October.

Our method of payment is via the school’s secure online payment facility, WisePay, which can be accessed from our website www.ashbyschool.org.uk. You must only use the WisePay account for the student who is attending the event, in the case of twins, you must use a separate WisePay account for each child.

SHOW RACISM THE RED CARD
Stand together. Speak up. Challenge racism.

FRIDAY 16th OCTOBER

Wear one red accessory with your normal school uniform.

A simple visual message: racism is not accepted in our school, and everyone should be treated equally and fairly.

Examples: red socks • wristband • ribbon • tie • hair accessory.

Not a non-uniform day.
