Rapid lateral flow testing for households and bubbles of primary school pupils
About 1 in 3 people with coronavirus do not have symptoms but can still pass it on to others. Regular testing of people without symptoms is important to help stop the virus spreading and protect your loved ones. As lockdown restrictions gradually ease we all need to play our part to help protect each other.
Households, childcare and support bubbles of primary age pupils now have access to regular rapid lateral flow testing. This is for parents and carers, primary school pupils will not be asked to test at this time.
You can collect 2 packs of home test kits at a local collection point. Each pack contains 7 tests.
The two collection points nearest to Ashwood Park Primary School are:
Orchard Lane Car Park, DY9 8EU
Studley Gate Car Park, DY8 3RR
Both sites are open between 1 pm and 7 pm every day.

On behalf of the staff and governors may I take this opportunity to welcome you to our new website. The health, happiness and well-being of the children are at the heart of everything we do at Ashwood Park Primary School. We believe that a child’s successful educational experience can only be achieved through a strong partnership between home and school. This partnership must be based around open, honest and effective communication.
Our staff, pupils, parents and governors all work hard to ensure that our learning opportunities are both stimulating and memorable. As a result of this we continue to develop our “Irresistible Learning” that uses “Stunning Starts”, “Marvellous Middles” and “Fabulous Finishes”. We aim to provide the very best for all our children.
Ashwood Park continues to move from strength to strength. Ofsted (Feb 2014) had many positive things to say about our school. We were graded “Good”. In June 2018 we were again graded “Good” and praised for our care and support of all children. Both reports are available on the Ofsted website. Within our site you will find all the information you will need about our school.
