Welcome to Ashby Willesley Primary School

We are a 2-form entry primary school, located on the outskirts of the popular town of Ashby de la Zouch, overlooking the beautiful Leicestershire countryside.

We are the largest primary school in Ashby and pride ourselves on the welcoming ‘family feel’ that it has. This stems from our close family community including staff, pupils and families of our children. Everyone is made to feel valued and welcome, resulting in a happy, safe and positive place to learn. Our pupils are known for their exceptional behaviour and kindness and are role models both in the local community and beyond. Our dedicated staff are committed to ensuring that every child reaches their full potential. We have extremely high expectations which are reflected in our consistently high academic standards, behaviour and attitudes. 

We are proud to be part of Symphony Learning Trust, working in partnership with 11 other primary schools.

We have been made to feel welcome and included. We are all very happy.

My child has settled in really well and is loving school. I think this has been assisted by the gradual start and all the information we were given so we could talk at home. We couldn’t be happier with Willesley.
