Working at Ashford School is an opportunity to be part of an inspiring, unique, vibrant, and inclusive community. We currently employ around 390 people who work together to maintain and develop our very friendly and outstanding School.
Ashford is set in the middle of Kent, approximately 20 minutes journey from the Kent coasts: a stunning piece of coastline with something for everyone. We are in the ‘Garden of England’ with beautiful rolling countryside all around, including the Kent Downs, which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. If shopping is what you enjoy, we are fortunate to have the world famous Ashford Retail Outlet on our doorstep and Canterbury, with all its history, shops and unique charm is a short train or car journey away.
Transport links are excellent. Ashford is on the High Speed Line (HS1) into London – St Pancras in 37 minutes. The Ashford train station is also a stop for the Eurostar before it speeds into France and mainland Europe. Our proximity to France is enjoyed by so many local people, either for day trips or holidays: from Ashford, the Eurotunnel is 15 minutes and the port of Dover 30 minutes by car.
We provide full induction and support for all new staff, and want to ensure your transition to us is as smooth as possible. We encourage our employees to further develop their skills and abilities. We support independent study courses as well as offering a vast array of professional development opportunities from being part of United Learning.
