Ashfield School is a secondary school with academy status located in Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, England, which educates children ages 11–19. Built in 1964 as Nottinghamshire's first purpose built comprehensive school, Ashfield School now has a self-contained 40-acre (160,000 m2) rural campus. Facilities include computer suites, an ICT Centre, on-site sports facilities including four gymnasiums, tennis courts, all weather sports fields, running track and a swimming pool. For food, students can visit the on-site canteen named the Jeff Lacey centre (JLC). Other resources on-site include music studios, a tiered theatre and drama complex, photographic darkroom, print making and ceramics studios, fifteen science laboratories, a business centre, a CAD/CAM centre, library and careers library.

Late 2012 saw the opening of a new music and drama block following the destruction of the previous blocks earlier in the year. In January 2013 a new study area/library and classrooms was built onto the sixth form block, this is named the Resource Centre.
