"If you were recommending LRGS ..."

"If you were recommending LRGS to another parent, what would you say?"

These are just a few of the 788 replies to that question from our last parental questionnaire - with many thanks to our families for their partnership and for all their support!

My boys have loved the school and thrived.

The school is very inclusive and the number of clubs and activities that you can get involved in is amazing.

LRGS sets high standards and has a strong sense of community. My child has discovered like-minded people to develop and share his passions.

Great school, my daughter is so pleased she chose LRGS for 6th Form. Has made great friends, and enjoying her A-Levels! 

Our son has settled extremely well and loves coming to school. We feel that the teachers know him well and want the best for him. Expectations are high which makes our son strive to do well.

The quality of teaching and opportunities for personal growth in the classroom and through extra-curricular activities hugely outweigh the longer travel time from Preston to Lancaster. Don't let it put you off. It's definitely worth it!

It is a very good school especially for boarding.

I have the sense that nothing is too much trouble. Staff go above and beyond for pupils.

My boys have enjoyed new subjects and learnt a lot of new skills. There are a lot of opportunities to play sports, and my boys feel included and part of the school.

Well led, best in the north for boarding school.

The teachers are great and the school has become more inclusive and nurturing over the years.

Teachers and staff are caring and supportive.

My daughter joined the school in Year 12 and she is thriving both academically and socially 😊

My son has overall very much enjoyed his time at LRGS, he has loved the Latin and Greek and how well they were taught.

Fantastic school.

There's something at LRGS for every pupil and the pastoral care is excellent.  Pupils are given the space to grow into adults throughout the school. 

LRGS provides the best education you could wish for.   

It has been an accepting and inclusive environment for my neuro-diverse child. The learning support team have been excellent and very responsive to my son's changing needs.

Dr Pyle said at an open evening, ’The heart of the school is its pastoral care’ and I would agree.

It is a vibrant school which has traditional standards and encourages physical and mental well-being. Sports are a real strength and have enabled my son to develop skills and friends. Academic standards are high.

Sport is excellent and encouraged well.

The website makes it sound excellent, but it is even better than it sounds. Excellent pastoral care, lots of opportunities and every chance for your child to reach their full potential - academically, socially and in sport/music/drama.

My son loves it!
