Headteacher Welcome

Welcome to our amazing school.

I am passionate about working collaboratively with students, parents and the wider community to develop excellence and success and improve the life chances of young people.

I believe that we can achieve more together and our school values of kindness, courage and resilience are the foundation of everything we do. Staff at the school work towards offering students a world-class curriculum and world-class teaching every day. We believe that every student has the right to learn without barriers, and I am delighted that students are telling us how calm and focused their lessons are.

My aspirations for students and staff are sky high because at Liskeard School we know that having high standards and expectations contributes to everyone’s success. I am so pleased to see how the hard work and commitment of students and staff has led to some of the school’s best ever GCSE results in 2023 and 2024. I am ambitious for students to make excellent progress and am ambitious to create a distinctively focused and positive learning environment in every classroom. I want our students to succeed academically, but also in their personal growth and development and as positive, empowered citizens. This is reflected in the fact that in this current academic year 24/25, we have over 400 students actively involved in student council or student leadership opportunities.

We aim for excellence in pastoral support, and we want every student to thrive and participate.

Our aim is to provide an excellent education so we can all live responsible and successful lives. I believe that every young person has the capacity to do amazing things – it’s our collective responsibility to help them believe this, too. 

Thank you for your support as we grow and work together.

Dan Wendon, Headteacher
