Welcome from the Principal

The core purpose of our school is to ensure that every student enjoys an education that will help prepare them for a Remarkable Life in our modern world; to encourage a thirst for knowledge that will continue beyond their time with us at Lift Bexleyheath.

Our curriculum has been designed specifically for our students by the talented team of subject-experts at Lift Bexleyheath. Within our curriculum:

• Students experience a curriculum with social equality and opportunity at its heart; ensuring that students develop an astute awareness of themselves, their peers and their place in the world. 

• Students are met with intensity and rigour in every aspect of their school life and, with no time to waste in the lives of our students, there will be no wasted minutes in the classroom. Teachers will craft intellectually demanding sequences of lessons that meet students with high expectations; sequencing learning for long-term retention and depth of understanding. As a cornerstone of our school, students will develop a deep, increasingly complex, working knowledge in their chosen areas of study.

• Students will grow a toolkit necessary to solve in-depth tasks in every subject and, in developing their complexity of thought, they will understand the ability to make links as the foundation of intellect. Students will acknowledge a focus on the progress they are making in terms of knowing more, remembering more and being able to do more. 

Lift Bexleyheath provides an environment in which talents and abilities can thrive. We are a truly inclusive school offering all our students, whatever their background or ability, a great experience in the classroom, fantastic cultural opportunities and caring pastoral support. 

We are proud of our high expectations in terms of behaviour, effort and a readiness to take an active role in school life. The sense of community and pride in our school is clear as you walk around. We pursue excellence because we are proud of what we stand for. No matter what a person’s role in the school, all staff work tirelessly to ensure every one of our students pursues excellence in all that they do.
