I think Lady Bankes is a very good school, all staff have helped my son so much all these years.

He has made significant progress this year and we are exceptionally proud of him. He is much more conscientious and has developed a positive attitude to his learning. He is now a lot more meticulous with his presentation and will take time to think about what he is doing.

Thank you for giving us so much information. I only came to look out of interest as I was already sure that **** was going to another school but now I'm sure that they are going to come here. We like this school and we like you!

**** has enjoyed taking part in the early riser’s club and it has been noted how hard he has worked. This has had a positive and clear effect on his learning, especially with his reading and handwriting. **** has also benefited from additional adult support during lessons in order to maximise his progress and build his confidence. As a result, **** has made excellent, steady progress, particularly in Maths and Reading! Summer 2020​

We are super proud of her achievements this year and her thirst for learning.Thank you to all the staff involved in making this happen.

(Headteacher) following a family assembly - 'I absolutely love your assemblies. The children are so well behaved!

‘I attended the Year 1 and 2 Christmas Show this morning and I wanted to express my many thanks for such an amazing time. The staff and students were incredible, I have not laughed, cried, sung and clapped so much at an event. You and your staff made it an enjoyable time; it was faultless and I know that ***** loves coming into school everyday because of such dedication.’

One of my favourite aspects of Ladybankes Infant School is the strong values you hold on overall wellbeing and good mental health of all your pupils and staff. The emphasis you put on being kind to each other and being proud of individual achievements, whether they be big or small, is something I dearly hope my two girls will keep throughout adulthood.
