In Mathematics at Ashlyns, our aim is for students to appreciate the power of maths and to promote curiosity, resilience and enjoyment to enable students to develop into confident mathematicians who are able to apply their knowledge and skills to a range of problems in the real world. We aim to achieve this by students:
- becoming fluent in mathematics through varied and frequent practice, so that they are able to recall and apply their knowledge rapidly to increasingly complex problems.
- being able to reason mathematically by investigation, conjecturing relationships and to be able to justify or prove using mathematical language.
- applying their knowledge to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication.
Ashlyns is a popular and oversubscribed school with in excess of 1500 students including a growing and successful Sixth Form. The school was confirmed ‘Good’ by Ofsted in September 2023 with an ‘Outstanding’ Sixth Form provision. View our Ofsted report here.
We are a thriving school with a rich heritage. Originally established for the most vulnerable in society, our focus on helping all students to be the very best versions of themselves is central to all we do. It’s our aim that work and study should be joyful; the staff and students at Ashlyns help to create the atmosphere for this to happen. There is a palpable sense of community, professionalism and a culture of high expectations, all of which are underpinned by ethical leadership.
