Finally a School that won’t appease the Globalist brigade.

Ivanhoe College in Ashby won't drop name despite 'awkward' connotations

Named after the Walter Scott novel of the same name, the school shares its Ivanhoe link with several other aspects of Ashby, notably the former Ivanhoe Line that ran from Burton to Leicester and the Ivanhoe Runners club. A walking route, called the Ivanhoe Way, also exists in the area.

However, the 1820 novel, which is set during 12th century England, depicts divisions between Christians and Jews as well as witch trials - something school bosses admit to being ‘awkward’. Despite that, the Ivanhoe part of the name will not be dropped due to its recognition in the area
