  • Larkmead Open Mornings 2024

    Published 12/06/24

    Larkmead Open Mornings - Wednesday 2nd October, 9th October, 16th October and 23rd October from 9am to 10:30

    We look forward to welcoming children and families to our Open Mornings to share our school with you.

    Our recent Ofsted visit was our third Good inspection in a row. The report highlights Larkmead’s high aspirations, expectations, ethos and culture, alongside our strengths in behaviour, careers education, curriculum, leadership, pastoral care, personal development, safeguarding, sixth form and teaching & learning. 

     

    • This school is a very happy and inclusive place because, as one parent said, pupils ‘are at the heart of what Larkmead does’.
    • Pupils are polite and respectful with staff and each other.
    • Pupils feel safe and ‘seen’ here.
    • Pupils are very clear that the school does not tolerate bullying or prejudicial behaviour.
    • The school’s caring ethos ensures it maintains its high expectations, both academically and personally, while also continuing to provide strong support to pupils.
    • The school is aspirational for all pupils academically.
    • Staff manage behaviour very effectively, through clear expectations and positive relationships with pupils.
    • Most pupils behave extremely well, both in lessons and during social time.
    • Sixth-form students are excellent role models.

     

    We are as every grateful for the support of parents, reflected in the Ofsted Parent Survey.

    To discover what makes Larkmead a happy, successful school and to meet our students and staff, please book a tour.

  • UPDATE #8:

    Published 25/01/24

    Dear students, parents and carers

    The issues with our heating and hot water in main block have now been resolved with an initial temporary solution, so all students will return on Friday as planned.

    Our external caterers will continue to offer cold food only and only at lunchtime on Friday - Wednesday, with hot food returning on Thursday. We are sorry for this ongoing inconvenience which is out of our control.

    We’d like to thank students for the way in which they have managed the start of term in and out of school, and parents and carers for their adaptability and support. We are looking forward to having everyone back together at Larkmead.

    Best wishes

    Jonathan Dennett

    Headteacher
