School Move
Progress is under way for Ashmount to move to a brand new building on a wonderful green site on Crouch Hill, ten minutes' walk away from our current location.
This page is designed to explain the reasons behind the move, and the progress made so far. If you would like to know more, links within the clickable sections below will allow you to download relevant documents. We are now waiting to hear whether the Mayor of London will join Islington's planning committee in approving the plans.
Why move? The problems with Ashmount's current building.
Why Crouch Hill? Crouch Hill Community Park - current use, future plans, and its status as Metropolitan Open Land.
Consultation and Design Details of consultations with residents and parents, and information about the new design for the Crouch Hill Site.
Where are we now? Political support and the planning process, including issues - such as security - that have been raised in the local press.
The Planning Application What happened when the planning application for the Crouch Hill Site was heard by the planning committee on 8 September 2009 - and why the committee heard the application again on 13 October.
Latest News The planning application was heard again on 13 October 2009. This time the committee approved the plans - which have also now been passed by the Mayor of London and the Secretary of State. All necessary planning permissions are now in place for the project to proceed.
