The support you give as a parent or carer to your child’s education can have a great impact on their achievements at school. Getting involved can improve their grades, their attitude towards learning and help develop their confidence.

At Little Lever School, we want to support you in this involvement. That’s why we created the Friends of Little Lever group; find out how becoming a member can help support you to make a positive impact on your child’s success, as well as the development of the school.

The links below will also give you lots of great advice on how you can make a difference to your child’s learning experience.

Our commitment to pastoral care

Every student is a member of a House during their time at Little Lever School. A Director of House oversees the development and progress of the students within their House and follows their journey over the five years.

Within each house there is a Pastoral Officer and a group of form tutors who provide excellent pastoral care and support. Group tutors remain with the same group of students throughout years 8-11 enabling them to develop a thorough knowledge and understanding of each individual’s strengths and needs.

Pupil Premium

At Little Lever School we have tailored our intervention strategies to suit the individual needs of our pupils. Using sophisticated monitoring and tracking of pupil progress at whole school, and department level, we have identified those pupils in need of extra help in order for them to reach their targets.
