Lyndon School
Lyndon school is a large comprehensive secondary academy in Solihull. It is part of Summit Learning Trust and serves a cohort of approximately 1200 pupils from Years 7- 11. In March 2022 Ofsted described Lyndon school as a happy, friendly and caring place. Although the school primarily serves the Elmdon and Lyndon Wards within Solihull, it has, over recent years, become increasingly popular with students drawn from Birmingham.
At the heart of Lyndon’s improvement strategy is an unequivocal commitment to becoming a first class educational institution that prepares young people to face and successfully overcome the challenges of the 21st century.
Our vision at Lyndon School is to develop well-rounded confident and responsible individuals who aspire to achieve their full potential. Through the delivery of an ambitious, inclusive and knowledge rich curriculum we will tackle social disadvantage and ensure that all students possess the knowledge, skills and cultural capital they will need to live successful and happy lives within our diverse community. Our values of success through endeavour, ambition through challenge and strength through diversity are at the heart of our ethos.
