Important things to know when visiting Leamington School

It is our pleasure to be hosting you and share some of the many things that are happening across our school.  

In order to make the most of your visit we expect you to watch the clips below to understand the "why" behind what you will see.  Without this background information it will be easy to miss the really subtle and important things that are happening in our classes that while only might make a small difference, cumulatively these things make a measurable gain.

​These presentations will hopefully draw your attention to what is important and should maximise your time in classes to see things in action in a way that explains the back story behind why we are doing what we are doing.
