Welcome | The Ashwood Academy

Welcome to The Ashwood Academy

"We are a place that offers an alternative way of learning to suit students' individual needs. Our students will feel confident in themselves and learn both in and out of the classroom. We put wellbeing first and students will be proud of who they are"

The Ashwood Academy, part of the Catch22 Multi Academies Trust, is a small, supportive alternative education centre for learners aged 11 to 16-years-old. The national curriculum is delivered within a flexible and nurturing environment that recognises individual needs.

The Ashwood Academy provides short-term placements for young people in the Basingstoke area who need additional behavioural, emotional or medical support. It is an Ofsted rated ‘Good’ school.

A strong wrap-around approach at the Academy enables learners to build their confidence, overcome barriers to learning and progress to a positive next step in their lives.

Headteacher's Welcome

Welcome to The Ashwood Academy website. We are very proud of the work we do here at our school, and I hope while you browse through our website you appreciate the successes of our students.

Ashwood is a Trauma Informed school and we use this approach to work with our young people to help them feel safe and reach their potential both academically and socially. Staff understand the importance of our students’ well-being and we promote positive emotional and mental health, as well as social development.

I hope this website is a useful source of information for parents and pupils. Please add our website to your favourites list and visit us regularly to keep up-to- date with our events, achievements and activities. If you have any queries please, do not hesitate to contact the school office.
