As well as having natural beauty on our doorstep, Ashfield has spacious grounds, useful for PE and playtime with wilder areas including a pond on site to explore in art, drama, science and geography.

Our older pupils contribute to school life within their roles as school counsellors, eco-committee, librarians, Mind Mate ambassadors, sports leaders and digital leaders.
