About Pontville School

Pontville School is an independent specialist day school providing high quality education for boys and girls. With a record of continued outstanding Ofsted results, the school based in Ormskirk is regarded by many as the first choice for speech, language and social communication in the UK.

A big warm welcome to our website

At Pontville School, we believe that all of our pupils are capable and important and deserve the very best school experience possible. With this in mind, we aim to provide a safe, caring and inclusive learning environment, underpinned by our shared school values: Be Respectful, Be Responsible and Be Proud.

With an exceptional curriculum and excellent standards of teaching, our pupils consistently achieve well during their time with us. In addition, we help all pupils to feel prepared for their next steps by providing on-site therapies, as well as a wide range of enrichment, personal development and outdoor learning opportunities.

We are committed to working in partnership with parents, carers and other professionals in the best interests of our pupils. We would be delighted to welcome you to see our inspirational provision. Please contact us to arrange a visit at a mutually convenient time.
