About Us

Ashwood Spencer Academy are looking to appoint a fun, motivated, enthusiastic Class Teacher initially to be based in EYFS from September 2025.

At Ashwood Spencer Academy we are dedicated to providing exemplary teaching and learning for all our children. Our DREAM curriculum ensures creativity is at its heart- encouraging oracy, tolerance and collaboration. Our aim is to develop respectful individuals, who aspire to follow their DREAMs. Ashwood is a magical place that offers enriching experiences within a loving and stimulating environment. At Ashwood we value our close relationships with our parents, governors and the community; working in partnership to enable our pupils to have the best possible start in their educational journey.

Ashwood Spencer Academy joined Spencer Academies Trust in November 2018 and has gone from strength to strength each academic year. We have approximately 675 pupils on roll from nursery to year 6 and we are proud of our changing, diverse school community. Ashwood Spencer is at the heart of the community and is committed to improving educational outcomes for all our pupils. In October 2022, we received the IQM Inclusion Quality Mark with Centre of Excellence status. In our recent Ofsted inspection in February 2023, we were recognised as a ‘good’ school and we want to continue to improve on that status, by making the staff, pupils and community experience at Ashwood a magical one.

We are fully committed to our ethos of ‘Working together to believe and achieve’.

We work hard to make Ashwood a place to DREAM:

Determined risk takers who want to succeed
Resilient and respectful learners
Expressive communicators
Ambitious achievers, unafraid of mistakes
Magic happens when you dream
