Lift Richmond Park

Lift Richmond Park is a thriving secondary school with a sixth form, located in East Sheen near the stunning Richmond Park — the largest of London’s Royal Parks. Our location offers students access to a wealth of academic, cultural, and sporting opportunities across Richmond, Kingston, and central London.

Nestled in a vibrant community, with a diverse curriculum that blends academic rigour with creative exploration, we empower students to pursue their passions and develop critical thinking skills. We have unashamedly high aspirations for the students in our care and our outcomes consistently feature in the top 10% of schools in England.  We have no doubt that every child who joins us will have every opportunity to reach their full potential and leave us exceptionally well-placed for a happy and successful future. At Richmond Park we cultivate a culture of inclusivity, respect, and innovation, preparing our students not just for exams, but for life.

We are proud of our diverse and talented student body, and equally proud of our dedicated staff. At Lift Richmond we create a ‘can do’ culture, where professional development is prioritised and early career teachers are supported to make an immediate impact.
