About West Lodge School
A warm welcome to West Lodge School, a small independent school with a strong family ethos that encourages each child to develop as an individual.
One of the distinctive features of our school is its size. West Lodge is a small school with one class per year group and a maximum of 22 children in each class, enabling staff to know each and every child. Each child receives the individual attention that they need in order to thrive, giving them the best possible start to their education. We know that this model works and have no plans to increase our intake.
Although a city school, West Lodge has the unique feel of the archetypal village school coupled with 21st century opportunity. There's an empahsis on learning skills that can be applied to future careers that don't even yet exist, due to the fast pace of technological advance.
