At Ashby we promote and live by the following behaviours through our school values represented by ‘T.E.R.R.I’.

Thinking - We think about our learning and use our thinking skills to remember, understand, apply, analyse, evaluate and create to learn new knowledge, and build on current knowledge.

Enjoyment -  It is important that when we are at school we feel safe, work collaboratively and enjoy what we are doing. We do this by having a student voice and sharing our thinking. 

Reflection - It is important that as learners we are always reflecting on our learning. We need to know what it is we need to learn, and what to do when we have learnt new knowledge.       

Resilience - We always strive to excel and do our best in all that we do. We work hard to be the best learners and individuals we can be, even when thing do not always go as we planned.

Inclusion - We make sure that we make all members of the Ashby community feel welcome, included, and safe. We do this by being respectful, accepting, and courteous.
