WELCOME TO THE ENTHUSIASM, ENERGY AND EXCELLENCE THAT IS ASHTON PARK SCHOOL.

We are a popular, oversubscribed school that is committed to providing all our students with an exciting and challenging education where learning, achievement and enjoyment are at the heart of what we do. Our £18 million state of the art building and magnificent grounds allow students to fully enjoy our beautiful setting in the footprint of the Ashton Court Estate.

Ashton Park is a school with high aspiration and real, achievable ambition for its students. We set high standards and expectations in all that we do. Our examination successes reflect the highly committed and professional staff, the hard work of our pupils and the support of our parents. Indeed, key features to the school’s accomplishments are the positive and productive relationships we build with students, parents and the wider community.

We are continually working harder than ever with local schools and partners through our Co-operative Trust status. Through this we ensure standards continue to rise and opportunities improve for all young people in South West Bristol. This puts us at the heart of the community we serve and gives our community a clear voice in the future development of Ashton Park School. Collaboration is one of our guiding principles and we are proud of the excellent work our School Sport Partnership does with partner primary schools locally. We have a successful Sixth Form that offers progression to Post 16 and further education.

Ashton Park School has a special feel with a positive learning ethos and a fantastic range of opportunities for young people within and beyond the classroom. We believe in the potential of all our pupils and work tirelessly to ensure they succeed educationally as active, responsible citizens prepared for the future and able to contribute positively to society.

At the heart of everything we do and believe in, is that we are a community and we serve our community in the wider sense.
