Welcome to Lantern Lane Primary and Nursery School
Our school is a welcoming place to learn for children aged 3 to 11 and is situated in East Leake, a village between Loughborough and Nottingham. A school has stood on this site for 70 years with the current building being opened in September 2003; we are proud of our well-equipped classrooms, dedicated staff and our caring and inclusive community.
Our C.A.R.E values lie at the heart of everything we do; our aim is for all our pupils to develop confidence in themselves, achieve their full potential and engage in every opportunity in school in a respectful and enthusiastic manner.
