Welcome from the Head Teacher
Ashbrooke School opened in early 2017 and has quickly developed into an impressive and progressive place to learn. We are passionate about delivering the highest standards of teaching, whilst meeting the needs of our pupils in an accepting, positive and welcoming learning environment. The broad curriculum allows pupils to pursue both academic and vocational paths allowing individuals to grow and achieve.
Our school building and grounds offer so much opportunity for our young people to develop skills and experience in a wide range of areas. We want every pupil to enjoy their time at Ashbrooke and realise their full potential.
We would be delighted to welcome you to the school to see for yourself the ongoing progression of our facilities and most importantly our young people.
