Our specialism of Outdoor Learning is driven through every subject and right across our curriculum with a vast range of opportunities to develop life skills. The days are busy here at Linton School with meaningful learning where the children are supported to achieve their potential. The magnificent rural setting and facilities provide a stimulating environment that is centred around meeting the needs of all of our children and young people.

Linton School is a small school, which means we are able to provide an individual education package to each and every pupil. Our pupils leave school with confidence, self-belief and maturity because they have been treated with respect and nurtured throughout their time here at Linton School. It is important for the staff at Linton School that children feel part of the school community and have a sense of belonging which is why you will quite often see projects around the school designed by the young people.

It is the quality of the relationships and the personalised approach that makes Linton School so successful. Our students are at the heart of everything we do: they love coming to school, are fulfilled, purposefully aspirational and form life-long friendships. Small acts of kindness are valued in equal measure alongside academic achievements.

We hope our website gives you a real sense of the wonderful atmosphere here at Linton School in Freckleton, Preston. We really are like a family and as such we guide, support and nurture the character, talent and educational ability of our students. At Linton School, your child will flourish, their individuality will be recognised and they will be happy with who they are and secure in knowing what they can achieve in the future.

Linton School has a strong track record of transforming futures. I believe every pupil has enormous potential and should be truly seen, heard and understood.

I look forward to welcoming you in person to visit our school, meet our staff and pupils and see the excellent educational offer at Linton School.
