At Ash Hill Primary School we are a learning community with a caring and supportive ethos. Our whole school culture is underpinned by the principles of growth mindset and we believe that there are no limits to what our children can achieve. We aim to enable all children to develop as enthusiastic lifelong learners, ensuring everyone can be the best that they can be.
Our school is that every child experiences joy in their learning, feels a deep sense of belonging and becomes the best they can be. Our six school values are woven through the curriculum; community mindedness, responsibility, honesty, determination, consideration and resilience. T here are approximately 220 children at Ash Hill altogether.
Children can start with us at the age of three in our Nursery. Our Nursery class is housed in the on-site former Children's Centre building. Our school then has one class for Reception to Year 6.
