Clifton Lodge School provides co-educational, personalised learning in a warm and friendly environment with small class sizes where we know all our children by name.
Pupils join us from Nursery (aged 3+) and continue through the school to Year 6 where they focus on 11+ preparation for entry to selective senior schools.
Specialist Teaching
Maths and English have their prominent place in our timetable, but we highly value each subject, which is evident in our inspiring Core Knowledge curriculum. This curriculum is designed to develop curiosity and motivate a desire for learning in our pupils.
From Nursery, we offer subject specialist teaching in Music and Sports. From Reception, our pupils also have specialist teaching in French. Pupils in Pre-Prep, Years 1 & 2, have an Art specialist. In Prep, for pupils in Year 3 upwards, Science is taught by specialists and in Years 5 & 6 where the emphasis is on key 11+ preparation, we have specialist teaching in English and Maths.
We provide every child with the care and attention they require to be happy and successful by using a personalised learning approach.
All of our pupils are encouraged to take risks and develop into confident, independent learners.
We want our pupils to have a desire to learn, be open to new concepts, intellectually engaged and challenged beyond their years.
At Clifton Lodge, we embrace the variety of experiences and skills that pupils bring to the classroom because it affects how they learn.
We are committed to identifying each pupil's unique learning needs, and provide flexible and varied support to ensure that children work at, or above, age-related standards and realise their full potential, regardless of their needs and skills.
To help all of our pupils reach the highest levels of academic and pastoral success, we are dedicated to offering them an interesting and appropriately demanding curriculum. We strive to offer chances for the development of certain abilities and talents.
We believe every child has a right to an education that will help them reach their full potential, whether that potential is intellectual, physical, creative, emotional, spiritual, or social.
