Who are we?
At Lyme we create an inclusive learning environment for all where barriers do not narrow
any child’s potential to succeed. Through our ‘I CAN’ values we deliver an engaging
curriculum with personal development and achievement at the centre of everything we do
so that our children feel confident that they can achieve anything. We want our children to
leave Lyme with a wealth of knowledge, skills, and experiences so that they know their
talents and how they can contribute to the community and wider world.
