Lift Lea Forest, in one of Birmingham’s more challenging postcodes, is creatively “unconventional” and is Primary School of the Year in the West Midlands.
“We sweat the small stuff. Relentlessly. Our staff are laser-focused on rigour, routines and raising standards — not because it sounds good in a slogan, but because our children deserve the very best,” Mark White, the head of the school, says.
The school has built an innovation hub that wouldn’t look out of place in a tech start-up with podcasting equipment, a green screen, 3D printer and “the Portal”, a floor-to-ceiling interactive classroom where pupils can enjoy immersive storytelling.
White says: “We’re always experimenting. We love learning from others and above all making sure every child feels valued, stretched and genuinely excited to come through the gates each morning.”
