"Time to make it a better school"

Wouldn't even rate this school left me with trauma and bad anxiety due to being bullied the school does not care they protect the popular kids and don't deal with racism either. You tell the detention lady's and show them proof that you was bullied and they don't check proper as they want to be pals with the popular so it makes there day easier while you have to suffer .The only good thing i remember when i was there as a student is the fact some of the teachers are good workers and have tried so much trying to teach the students but due to the students who think they are all it having no respect for the teachers keep scaring them of so didn't get taught much because of that. So yes wouldn't recommend that school let alone ever sending my kids there.

"Exceptional sixth form experience!"

Our son has been in the sixth form at Lodge Park for a year now and it's been an absolute revelation. The teachers are top-notch, the resources are excellent and the pastoral care is superb. The school's commitment to providing opportunities for students to excel in their chosen fields is truly inspiring. We're so grateful to have made the right choice for our son's A-levels.

"Amazing teachers and facilities!"

My daughter has been at Lodge Park for a few years now and we couldn't be happier. The teachers are always supportive and engaging, the facilities are excellent and the values of ambition, aspiration, resilience and respect are really instilled in the students. We've seen her grow into a confident and well-rounded young person. We can't recommend the school enough!

"Great school, but some improvements needed"

We've been at Lodge Park for a couple of years now and overall we're very pleased. The school has a great atmosphere and the staff are mostly very good. However, we've noticed that the curriculum could be more diverse and the enrichment programs could be better organised. Still, we're happy with the progress our son is making. Maybe we'll see some changes in the next year or two?

"It got better"

Tbh the school got better once we got a proper head teacher, teachers are mostly nice and invested in the topic theyre teaching, but the year or so we had different head teachers in wasn't good and there would be basically a new teacher every day with at least one sub for one lesser per day

"Wish I went to a different school! "

Teachers are new every day! Ridiculous! When I was there it was sub teacher after sub teacher. The teachers are rude too! And we had over 4-5 new head teachers in the 4 years I was there.
