Lyndon School

Informasi umum

Lyndon is a busy and exciting place which offers a friendly secure environment for learning. Individuals truly matter; we want every student to grow and develop to their maximum potential, both academically and socially.

Our curriculum offers a wide range of choice and is delivered by enthusiastic, experienced and committed staff. We are continually developing and strengthening our curriculum to include not only the traditional subjects, but also a range of more personalised learning routes, including vocational courses and diplomas.

We work closely with the local business and industrial community to provide opportunities for students to experience the world of work and gain and insight into its relevance to their studies at Lyndon.

While academic results matter enormously it is a matter of pride to us that education at Lyndon does not stop at the door of the classroom, laboratory or workshop. We offer a much wider breadth of opportunity including a range of trips both in this country and abroad, a long tradition in sports activities, music and drama. Many activities are student led and we are proud that they regularly organise events to raise funds for a wide range of charities.

It is also extremely important to us that our students enjoy their years at Lyndon; that they feel happy and secure and forges friendships that last well beyond their teenage years. We expect a high standard of behaviour at all times and will not tolerate bullying in any form. We believe it is vital that parents are kept informed of their child’s progress, involved in any support or discipline measures and share in celebrations of their child’s achievements.

Lyndon is a large school on a large site. For those coming from primary school that can be daunting so we have established an extensive induction programme to aid a smooth, happy transition. In addition all students from years 8 – 11 belong to one of three colleges. This provides a smaller, more personal community where staff and students can get to know each other as individuals and provide support as well as challenge.
