Ascot Road Primary School

Welcome to Ascot Road Primary School

We pride ourselves on providing a caring and loving environment for young children to learn, thrive and flourish. We have strong values at Ascot Road and ensure all children display these values every day at school. We are an inclusive school and champion all our children to work to their greatest potential and strive for the best.

We want our children to have special and happy memories of their time at Ascot Road and value highly the positive relationships we build between children, parents, staff, governors and our neighbouring communities. Our school is a happy, stimulating and caring place and we expect high standards of behaviour and good manners throughout the school.

We are proud of our broad and balanced curriculum, which enables students of all talents and interests to find a pathway that suits them. We are very fortunate to have such a dedicated team of teachers, learning support practitioners and other staff who strive to ensure that every child is successful, confident and responsible, equipped with all the skills they need to continue on their future learning journey.
