"Excellent school with values that shine through"

My daughter is thriving at Lichfield Cathedral School. The values of learning, faith, leadership and service are truly embedded in the school culture and it's wonderful to see the students reflect these values in their daily lives. The music program is also fantastic and has given my daughter the opportunity to develop her passion for singing.

"Mixed feelings about the school"

We loved the school's emphasis on faith and community service, but sometimes felt that the academic focus was a bit too strong. The music program was great, but our child's interests were not always accommodated. Overall, it was a good experience, but not without its challenges.
