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

Our Open Evening is on Thursday 8th of October 5:30-8pm, with presentations by Co-Headteachers Jonathan Dennett & Rich Evans and students.

Our Open Mornings are on Tuesday 6th of October, Tuesday 13th of October and Tuesday 2oth of October, great opportunities to see what makes Larkmead special on a normal working day.

Our 2024 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.
