About Lickey End First School

Lickey End First School is a small village primary, catering for children from Reception to Year 4. They gained their OPAL Platinum Award in January 2025 and are a shining example of how play continues even in the muddiest of weathers. The school also runs free-flow lunches, allowing children to choose when they eat throughout the lunchtime period.
