Little Lever School is one of the most improved schools in the country. Our outcomes remain in the top 100 schools nationally for similar schools. In May 2026, our school was graded Strong in Curriculum and Expected in all other areas by OfSTED. We continue to move forward at pace. We are a recognised School-Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) and Teach First Partner school and support schools from across the Northwest in a range of areas. The systems and structures we have established, our clear expectations and relentless focus on our praise culture, routines and behaviour have created a positive environment where students can learn, and teachers can teach.
This is an exciting time to join Little Lever as we expand, providing the best educational experiences for more pupils. Our ambition is to become ‘the best in class’. We put students at the heart of our thinking and we continue to help every person achieve things they never thought they could!
