About Lift Montgomery

Parents at Lift Montgomery are overwhelmingly positive about their experience. In the most recent Parent View survey, 93% of respondents said they would recommend the school, with no parents disagreeing. The feedback is particularly strong on happiness and safety: every parent agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and all felt their child is safe. The school is clearly popular in the local area too. For the 2025/26 academic year, it received 80 applications for just 43 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.86. Of those 80 applications, 35 were first-preference choices, and all 35 first-preference families were offered a place. This combination of high parental satisfaction and strong demand suggests a school that has built a solid reputation among Birmingham families.
