PTA

The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is a group of parents and senior staff who work together to support the school community for the benefit of all the students.  We do this by raising funds for projects and supporting many of the school’s events.  Funds raised by the PTA have gone towards the sports centre, school minibuses, football posts, picnic benches and other smaller and important projects to enhance the school site.

We raise funds through pre-loved school uniform sales, the 300 Club, the autumn term parents’ quiz evening and other activities – and are always open to new ideas!

The PTA supports many school events.  This includes sponsoring prizes for the Awards Evening, and providing refreshments at the Careers Fair, International Business Week, concerts and new parents' evenings.

We are delighted to see new people show interest in becoming part of the PTA and would like to extend a particular welcome to those new to the school.  Please do click the contact button below to get in touch.

We meet once or twice a term at the school for one hour, starting at 7pm.

PTA Events

The PTA held its third very successful Christmas Fair at the school in November 2025, raising funds to support the school.

PTA Meetings

Preloved School Uniform

The Ashcombe School's Preloved Uniform store is run by PTA volunteers. The aim is to support sustainable reuse of good quality school uniform items, whist raising funds to reinvest into our school. We welcome donations of good quality second-hand uniform which we can offer to families for reasonable suggested donations.

We aim to run a sale each term (dates notified by Arbor and in school weekly newsletter).

These take place in the PTA building (B1) which is located at the Croft Avenue entrance to the school, adjacent to the Bradley Performing Arts Building entrance. Please only park at the Croft Avenue entrance in order to access B1.

Preloved Uniform Sale dates

To arrange an opportunity to look/ browse/try and buy uniform please contact us on the following email uniform@ashcombe.surrey.sch.uk.

Please note that stock and size availability cannot be guaranteed, and we would always advise you to come and see/try the clothing items for yourself. We can offer a fitting room on-site for you to check the fit. As we operate on the availability of a very small team of volunteers, exchanges and refunds are not possible. We accept both card and cash payments.

For further information about pre-loved uniform matters, please contact us at uniform@ashcombe.surrey.sch.uk  Thank you.

The 300 Club

With regret, the PTA 300 Club has closed. The PTA would like to thank you for your support with this over the years.
