Ashlyns is a popular and oversubscribed school. We became a full secondary school in September 2013 following the re-organisation of the education provision in Berkhamsted and now have over 1,400 students. The school has undergone significant refurbishment with continuing improvements in progress following the school’s expansion to eight forms of entry. This is an exciting time to join our school and make your impression as we continue to grow and build on our success.
The school was confirmed ‘Good’ by Ofsted in September 2023 with an ‘Outstanding’ Sixth Form provision. View our Ofsted report here.
Ashlyns is a thriving school with a rich heritage. Originally established for the most vulnerable in society, the school continues to emphasise the traditional values of respect, honesty, and hard work. These values, combined with high expectations, innovation, and creativity, mean that Ashlyns is a school that encourages and helps students to develop and make the most of their abilities and interests.
If you want to provide outstanding learning opportunities for students within a forward-thinking, hard-working school community, we would like to hear from you.
