Inspiring a Love for
Lifelong Learning
Welcome to Ashford Park
Ashford Park is a three form entry primary school for children aged four to eleven and is situated at the west end of Ashford, close to Ashford Hospital, Heathrow Airport and the M25.
Ashford Park is committed to the safeguarding and well-being of all children and adults.
Our APPS vision is to ‘Inspire a love for lifelong learning’ through our aims of ‘Achieving Potential Producing Success’ (APPS).
Our shared vision 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.
Ashford Park Values
Our APPS Values have been chosen by our children, staff and community and are presented in a values tree created from the children's artwork. The symbols below were chosen by the pupils of Ashford Park to represent our values. When children demonstrate our values they are rewarded with house points and receive certificates in weekly Celebration Assemblies.
"The school has high expectations of pupils."
"The motto of 'Achieving Potential, Producing Success' is understood and used by pupils across the school."
"They are proud to be part of the school and recognise the high expectations the school has for them."
"They live up to these expectations, demonstrating the school values in how they behave and also in their learning."
"Consequently, all pupils achieve well."

Testimonials
Superstars
The communication at your school has been first-rate despite all the challenges of the last few years. It's clearly evident that each and every staff member really cares and the opportunities that Ashford Park has provided, even though my child has only been with your for 3 years, has been great - thank you again.
Quotee
'I cannot thank the staff at APPS enough for the seven wonderful and happy years that my daughter has spent with you. We are sad to move on from you, the staff and children of Ashford Park Primary School.'
'We have been with you during this journey of expansion and yet, this school remains a calm, happy and wonderful place. The only words are THANK YOU APPS!'
Supportive comments
‘My experience has been brilliant. I have found all staff approachable, been well-informed, that my child's education and well-being is the no1 priority of all staff, I have felt welcomed, and it’s been a worry free experience as my child was in safe hands.’
‘Ashford Park has given my child an outstanding start to her educational journey. It's given her the tools she will need to have a smooth and successful education. Thank you.’
‘As a parent I couldn’t be happier with my child’s time at APPS. From reception to year 6 he has had wonderful teachers and supporting staff, received a fantastic education and has this great enthusiasm for learning that I know will stay with him forever.’
Excited to start
My daughter has told me that there are five sleeps until she starts at Ashford Park. She's more excited about starting school, then she is for Christmas!
