"Excellent School in All Aspects"

We moved to Newcastle-under-Lyme from London and were worried about finding a good school for our daughter. But from the moment we visited NULS, we knew it was the perfect fit. The facilities are top-notch, the teachers are passionate and caring, and the values of the school align perfectly with our own. We couldn't be happier with our decision!

"Wonderful Experience for Our Child"

We've been at NULS for three years now, and it's been a fantastic experience for our son. He's thrived in the supportive environment, and we love the range of extracurricular activities on offer. The teachers are always available to discuss progress and concerns, and we appreciate the emphasis on character development alongside academic achievement.

"Some Good, Some Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at NULS so far. Our son has enjoyed the sports facilities and the music program, but we've had some concerns about the communication between teachers and parents. The school's emphasis on character development is lovely, but we feel it sometimes comes at the expense of academic rigor. We're hoping things will improve as he gets older.

"NULS Gave Our Child the Best Start"

Our daughter attended NULS from Reception to Year 6, and it was an incredible experience for our family. The school's commitment to academic excellence, combined with its focus on individuality and creativity, gave our child the confidence and skills to succeed. We're so grateful for the investment the school made in her education.
