Ash Green Primary School is situated in the south-western suburbs of Stoke - on - Trent. The school has a  60 place full time Nursery. The housing stock is composed of residential estates of owner-occupied properties. The majority of pupils live in the immediate vicinity of the school with a minority travelling from the surrounding district.

Ash Green is a large primary school with approximately 470 pupils. The ethos of the school is based on enjoyment and the provision of a wide ranging creative curriculum that enhances the childrens' experiences, increases their motivation to learn which results in high achievements.

At the Ofsted Inspection (March 2009), it was stated that the school "provides an outstanding education for its pupils".

"The school provides a "first class curriculum which provides an excellent balance between creative, physical and academic work".  Pupils, including those with Special Educational Needs, make outstanding progress.  One pupil is quoted as saying, "This school is about as good as it gets". "The school is well led and managed and provides outstanding value for money."

 

Achievement and standards, personal development and well-being, quality of provision, leadership and management and overall effectiveness  were all described as outstanding.

Currently Years 3,4, 5, 6 are in the main school building.
Year 1, Reception, the Nursery and one Year 2 class are accommodated in the Infant building.
The other Year 2 class is in a mobile while further building work is being developed.

The Infant building has been extended and refurbished so that we can now accommodate an extra Nursery class and most of the infant classes.

Further work is scheduled for January 2010 when another classroom will be built in the Infant building.

The outside play facilities for the Foundation Stage children have been extended with new play equipment.

New playground markings have been added.

 

The entire area is surrounded with security fencing.

The school has extensive grounds which allows for four playground areas. This means that the children can be spread out in age groups to avoid overcrowding. There is also a good sized football pitch and a large grassed area at the side of the main school, which extends the possibilities for general play and for P.E. and Games.

The school has an excellent reputation for creative work including art, dance, music and drama.

Children from the school perform regularly in concerts, conferences and workshops at a variety of theatres and other venues.

 

The choirs have regularly taken part in competitions and won many trophies.

Over the last ten years the school has been represented at a number of significant venues, including:-

 

The Royal Albert Hall

Millenium Dome (now the 02 arena)

Maritime Museum in London
