- Luckley House School is a thriving Coeducational Independent School, located in Wokingham, Berkshire, offering day and flexible boarding provision for pupils aged 11 to 18 years. The school is set in attractive grounds with excellent facilities, and at just 40 miles from London, is the perfect location for full or weekly boarders. Our uniqueness lies in the combination of our size, Christian ethos, and flexibility to meet the needs of individual pupils and their families. We provide a distinctly academic education that is tailored to the individual needs of each pupil. This is offered in the context of a broad curriculum that celebrates the arts and sports, as much as academic achievement. Luckley House School is often described by visitors as “a hidden gem”. The uniqueness of our school lies in the combination of our size, Christian ethos, and flexibility to meet the needs of individual pupils and their families. Why Choose Lucky? A small nurturing school with a strong Christian ethos Small class sizes enabling tailored teaching and learning Excellent academic results and value-added achievement A close working partnership with parents Flexible school day – before and after school provision Flexible boarding options A strong program of enrichment and co-curricular activities Our uniqueness lies in the combination of our size, Christian ethos, and flexibility to meet the needs of individual pupils and their families. We provide a distinctly academic education that is tailored to the individual needs of each pupil. This is offered in the context of a broad curriculum that celebrates the arts and sports, as much as academic achievement. Every single school takes huge pride in the top performers in every cohort of young people. In late August we become preoccupied with how many A and A* grades have been achieved by groups of pupils across the country, at both A level and GCSE level. It is good to applaud the efforts of those young people and to admire their achievements. At the same time, we must remember the fact that we are not all top academic performers, just as we are not all elite sports performers or capable of producing astounding works of art. At the risk of coming out with a platitude, we are all different. However, in our measures of success of education, our society seems to be obsessed with defining success as a clutch of the highest grades with perhaps a great sporting record threw in in the interests of balance. Surely this is too narrow, and even too simplistic a means of measuring success both on a pupil level and a school level. We need to consider the young people as they grow up. While we should recognize the achievements of those with the highest grades, we really must broaden our view of what success means for every individual. We all need to be successful, for ourselves and the people around us. This is as much about what we do, as to why we do it, and how we can all thrive and contribute to the society most positively.
