"Outstanding School!"

We're so happy with Leasowes High School. The facilities are top-notch, especially the new theatre and sports halls. The teachers and staff are all very supportive and help the kids to reach their full potential. The 'Aspire and Achieve' motto really shows in the way the school promotes individuality and growth.

"Excellent Support for Students"

What impresses me most about Leasowes is the support they offer to students outside of the classroom. The Ethos programme is fantastic and really helps kids with their emotional and mental well-being. My child has thrived since starting here and I'm confident that's because of the school's focus on their individual needs.

"Good Experience, Room for Improvement"

As a former parent, I can say that Leasowes did a great job of preparing my child for GCSEs. However, I did find the communication with teachers to be a bit patchy at times. Overall, I'm satisfied with the education my child received, but I think the school could benefit from a bit more transparency and feedback.
