Ashford Park opened in 1990, after Hengrove School and Woodthorpe School amalgamated. Our well-maintained buildings are set in beautiful grounds, which the children actively use to support their learning. There are 21 classes, 3 per year group from Reception to year 6, and an SEN COIN centre, with 2 classes. The school is very well equipped with modern furniture and excellent resources in all classrooms. Our grounds have a yurt, reflection garden, bird hide, and a range of gym equipment.

All staff ensure that the classrooms are attractive and stimulating places for the children, where lifelong learning is encouraged and supported. In addition the school offers a cycle rack, a pond area and the Jubilee Garden for children to use all year round. There is a smooth flow of learning throughout our school, we have structured our learning environment, to allow for an Early Years Foundation Stage / KS1 unit, Year 2 3 and 4 building and a Year 5 and 6 junior unit. 

We invest heavily in staff professional development, and fund Masters study and NPQs etc.

At Ashford Park we aim: to develop the skills and curiosity for lifelong learning; for all individual learners to thrive and reach their full potential; to celebrate, reflect and share our learning successes; for every learner to foster a caring and considerate attitude.

Vision statement: Inspiring a love for lifelong learning through Achieving Potential Producing Success (APPS - Ashford Park Primary School).

Our shared mission: is to develop well-rounded, confident and responsible individuals who aspire to achieve their full potential. We will do this by providing consistently high-quality teaching in a welcoming, happy, safe and supportive learning environment in which everyone is equal and all achievements are celebrated.
