Our Academy
Headteacher's Welcome Message
Welcome to our family here at Ashby Fields Primary School.
I am honoured to lead such a fantastic school where we nurture, inspire and empower your children to be the best they can be.
It takes a village to raise a child and by working collaboratively with the children, parents and local community we can help children to fulfil their individual goals.
Our belief is a happy child is a child who will enjoy learning in a positive, inclusive and fun environment.
We have high aspirations for all our children and have developed a rich and inspiring curriculum and offer a broad range of experiences and opportunities. The core subjects of maths, English, science and P.E. are taught discreetly alongside PSHE and computing whilst the foundation subjects are taught through a topic-based approach, in order to engage and enthuse our pupils.

Pupil and staff wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do.

Ashby Fields Primary School is part of InMAT a multi academy trust
InMAT is based in Northamptonshire. Our aim is to provide exceptional opportunities for learning for a family of primary academies across the county. Our passion is primary education and we believe that children can achieve the highest academic standards at the same time as enjoying a rich, rewarding and challenging curriculum which focuses on themselves as individuals, developing their character and helping them realise the opportunities open to them in the wider world.
There are currently 11 schools in the inMAT family. We are passionate about enabling every child to achieve their potential, and we go that extra mile to ensure each and every one of our children gets the best possible opportunities and experiences.
For us, academic excellence is a given. But our schools are about so much more; offering broad and exciting experiences that really inspire the young people in our care.
This approach to learning requires exceptional people. We value all of the people who work in our schools and great schools have great leaders and great staff. Our team has educationalists and leaders who have proven track records of success and we are committed to learning from each other and believe that everyone has something to offer. We believe in developing and retaining our staff, across every level of the organisation.
