## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Outstanding Maths School: My daughter has thrived at LUSoM. The teachers are excellent, the facilities are state-of-the-art, and the enrichment programme is so engaging. The school's values of ambition, communication, and professionalism are clearly embedded in every aspect of school life. I couldn't recommend LUSoM more. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional maths education: My son has now completed his A-levels at LUSoM and I'm so proud of his achievements. The maths school has a fantastic outreach programme, which encouraged him to push himself and develop a real passion for maths. The head of school, Pete Tiltman, is passionate about maths education and it shows in the school's ethos and values. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — A great experience, but some room for improvement: My son has had a great experience at LUSoM, but I do think the school could do more to support students with mental health issues. The facilities are excellent and the teachers are knowledgeable, but the enrichment programme could be more diverse. Overall, I'm happy with my son's education at LUSoM. *(Mar 2022)*
