“Leighton Park provides an incredibly open community, encouraging people to speak up and think for themselves. The commitment of teachers, and the way they support us as students, is remarkable. My teachers want me to succeed and do well, and this is very apparent in the way they teach. I’m provided with a lot of support if I feel like I need it, and you generally feel ‘safe' in an academic point of view.”

“I have a huge debt to repay to the Leighton Park staff, especially music, for providing me with so many opportunities and having a belief in my abilities. I certainly wouldn’t be dreaming of a career in Music, let alone applying to conservatories, without their support.”

“Leighton Park is made special through mutual respect between staff and students. It allows students to speak freely, and teachers to answer honestly in the most helpful way. The LP House system meant I always had a friendly community to socialize with, and you’re never too far from friends in other houses. The Park is well maintained, and a fantastic environment to learn in. There aren’t many schools where you can be sitting at your bedroom window and look over such a beautiful and natural landscape.”

“I love the caring atmosphere and the ethos within the school. The time for reflection during school assemblies is something I greatly value as a time for contemplation - a break from the stress that school can build up. Relationships between the students and teachers are also very important here, and the fact that Leighton Park is a boarding school means that school does feel like a second home.”
