Company activities and impact

Polish School Lincoln provides supplementary education for 150 Polish and British children up to the age of 18, including preparation for A-level qualifications. The curriculum includes Polish language, history, and culture, helping young people maintain a strong connection with their Polish heritage while developing bilingual skills and cultural awareness. The school also organises a wide range of community and integration activities, including educational trips, cultural workshops, family gatherings, seasonal celebrations, and charity initiatives that bring together children, parents, and the wider local community. One of the key annual events is Polish Heritage Day, attended by representatives of the Polish Consulate, local council officials, Lincolnshire Police, and many other organisations and guests. Through its educational and social activities, the school promotes cultural exchange, supports the integration of Polish families within the local community, and creates a welcoming environment where children can develop confidence, friendships, and pride in their identity.

Consultation with stakeholders

We hold regular meetings with school governors, teachers, and parents to discuss future plans, budgeting, school events, educational resources, policy updates, and staff training requirements. We value the views of all stakeholders and ensure that everyone is kept informed about important developments and changes within the school. Parents are encouraged to share their feedback and suggestions through questionnaires and ongoing communication. Information, updates, and announcements are also shared regularly through our online parent groups, helping us maintain strong communication and collaboration within the school community.
