"A good school with some areas for improvement"

I've been impressed with the school's commitment to safeguarding and online safety, which is very important to me as a parent. My son has also enjoyed his lessons and has made some good friends. However, I feel that the school could do more to communicate with parents about their child's progress and achievements. Overall, it's a good school, but it needs a bit more work in this area.

"Excellent facilities and caring staff!"

I've been impressed with the range of facilities at Ormskirk School, particularly the sports hall and astroturf. My daughter loves attending the Space Club and has made some wonderful friends through the school's extracurricular activities. The staff are very supportive and always willing to help with any issues. We feel very fortunate to have our child at this school.

"Fantastic education and caring community!"

My son attended Ormskirk School from Year 7 to Year 11 and received an excellent education. He benefited greatly from the school's values-based approach and had the opportunity to participate in many extracurricular activities. The staff were always supportive and helped him to achieve his goals. I'm so grateful for the education and experience he gained at Ormskirk School.
