Welcome to Ash Green!

Welcome to our website which we hope you find both useful and interesting. The information contained within it is constantly updated so please visit us again. You can also find the latest on curriculum developments and the most up to date Newsletters!

 

At Ash Green Community Primary School we are here to serve our pupils, their families and the community. We make our school a centre of learning excellence for all. There is driving determination to ensure that pupils and adults in the school reach their full potential. Children get one chance with their education and at Ash Green we want this to be the best. This is why we offer childcare facilities every morning and evening, an on-site Children's Centre/Family Hub, and Family Support Services that have been recognised nationally and evening activities for youngsters in Mixenden. Ofsted (November 2018) rightly identified, ‘the school is at the heart of the community.’ In these times recovering from the Covid pandemic, the awful fire that destroyed much of our Upper Site and the current Cost of Living crisis this has been more important than ever. If anybody ever needs any support with ANY issue, please call us on 01422 244613 or visit our SEND/PASTORAL website tab: 'Help' for signposting to various services. We have now set up fortnightly support with Housing and Finance issues in conjunction with Holy Nativity Church who also host a Community Drop In and Pantry each Monday afternoon.

 

Ash Green regularly models outstanding practice in teaching and learning and we were previously honoured to be named a National Support School. I was also privileged to be named a National Leader of Education. Although we are very much our own Local Authority Maintained school we are part of the North Halifax Cluster and we are proud of the work we do helping to support schools in Calderdale and beyond. Our latest Ofsted inspection (November 2018) confirms that Ash Green is a GOOD school. There are so many positives in the report and our wonderful children attract huge praise: ‘Pupils thrive at Ash Green. They enjoy their learning, display positive attitudes and value their education.’

 

You can contact me to arrange a visit, message through Dojo, or register your views of the school through 'Parent View' - a part of Ofsted's website- please do! You can view Ofsted's School inspections: a guide for parents by clicking on the 'Key Info' menu and the Ofsted link. You can access and download our prospectus, admissions information and all of the school's curriculum policies and schemes of work via the 'Key Info' tab at the top of the page. We very much want you to feel a part of our school community! This last school year has been a momentous one: despite the traumas of the last four years we saw incredible progress and attainment from our Year 6 cohort leaving in July and also improved outcomes in EY, Year 1 phonics and KS1. The key issue for us all this year has been the exciting rebuild of our Upper Site which is now complete as seen on many news outlets! Here's to another fantastic year!!
