Welcome from the Principal of Ashlawn School

Thank you for your interest in our school.

As the recently appointed principal of Ashlawn School, I remember well the excitement of considering a new challenge and opportunity. I also know that recruitment is a two-way process. We are looking for the right person for the position; someone who really buys into our vision of ensuring that all students have the right opportunities to maximise their potential in all areas. You are looking for the right school in which to develop and progress, to contribute to the success of others and to get the support that you need to feel happy in your role. We hope that you agree that Ashlawn is exactly that kind of school, I certainly do.

We welcome visits to Ashlawn prior to application because we are proud that:

• Our students are motivated and want to succeed
• Behaviour is excellent
• The variety of opportunities both within and out of the classroom provides all students with the opportunity to develop their interests and skills in a wide range of areas

At Ashlawn School, everybody counts. Staff and students will talk about the support they get from each other – we truly are a community. Our key aim is to give every child the opportunity to flourish and develop into life-long learners, engaged in the world around them and ready to take their place in the world as resilient, caring, disciplined, well-educated and employable adults. If you want to teach and develop in a highly effective team, contribute to our excellent standards and have high aspirations for young people then Ashlawn School is the right school for you!

We look forward to meeting with you, so you too can appreciate our wonderful school and its community.

With best wishes

Siobhan Evans
Principal
