Schools in Ashby-de-la-Zouch
Ashby-de-la-Zouch has 10 schools coordinated by Leicestershire County Council, with 7 primaries and 2 secondary schools. All six Ofsted-rated schools hold a Good or Outstanding rating - a 100% Good+ record - making this one of the stronger performing clusters in Leicestershire. No schools are currently oversubscribed, and admissions are largely straightforward for local families.
Two faith schools operate in the area. Leicestershire operates an entirely non-selective secondary system, so Ashby Grammar School (now The Ferrers School) transitioned away from selection. The two secondary schools, Ivanhoe Academy and The Ferrers School, serve the majority of secondary pupils and have both maintained strong Ofsted outcomes in recent inspections.
