lady manners school
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Lady Manners School. We are a
highly successful 11-18 school situated within a beautiful setting in the Peak
District. At Lady Manners School, we are committed to delivering the best
possible education for our students. The school is inclusive in its outlook, and
innovative in its engagement with students, parents and carers and the wider
community. We value the strong relationships we have developed across our school
community. Together we provide a safe and calm learning environment where every
person matters, where no child is left behind and where every child has an
opportunity to succeed. We have a strong commitment to ensuring that the learner
is at the heart of everything we do. All students are encouraged to have high
aspirations in developing their individual talents and follow an ambitious
school curriculum. Students at Lady Manners are wonderful ambassadors for our
school – hard working, enthusiastic, fun to be with and genuinely impressive
young people. We have high expectations of them all and aim to develop
confident, resilient and independent learners who enjoy their time at school. We
want them to thrive within our school community. I am privileged to lead a
dedicated team of teachers and support staff who value the many and varied
achievements of all students, including academic and wider successes. We
recognise that everyone learns differently and that making mistakes and taking
risks are both integral parts of the learning experience. We were rated as
‘Good’ during our most recent Ofsted inspection (March 2020) and received an
outstanding grade for Personal Development. Ofsted reported that students are
proud to attend our school and appreciate the support, guidance and care that
they receive from their teachers.
