Lapal Primary School

About Lapal Primary School

Lapal is a 1.5 form entry school taking 45 children per year. We are lucky to have a lovely school building, nestled in superb grounds which incorporate a large field, several woodland and wildlife areas, a trim trail and a pond. We have extensively re-modelled our Early Years and Foundation Stage classroom and out-door areas and our children learn in warm, bright and well-resourced surroundings.

"Some mixed feelings about our experience"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience at Lapal so far. On the one hand, the staff are friendly and supportive, and the school's focus on sustainability is great. On the other hand, we've found the communication to be a bit patchy at times, and our child's progress hasn't always been clear. Still, we're hoping things will improve.
