"A true gem of a school"

Lisburne School is an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived for our tour, we were struck by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. My child is in their third year now, and I've seen them blossom into a confident and happy young person. The staff are dedicated and passionate, and the school's values of respect, kindness, and inclusivity really shine through.

"Mixed feelings, but overall a great experience"

We've had a mixed experience at Lisburne School so far. The staff are generally supportive and enthusiastic, and my child has enjoyed the PSHE curriculum. However, I've noticed that some of the resources and facilities are a bit outdated, and the school could do more to engage with parents like me. That being said, I feel confident that my child is in good hands, and I appreciate the school's commitment to equality and diversity.

"Exceptional school with a caring staff"

I was so impressed with Lisburne School when my child attended from 2018-2020. The staff were always cheerful and attentive, and the school's focus on equality and diversity really resonated with me. My child made great progress and is now thriving in their new school.
