Opened in 1890 as a County Primary School, Lickey End First School was later designated a First School (Reception to Year 4) following the introduction of a three-tier system of First, Middle and High Schools in 1976. Children from Lickey End move on to Middle School at the beginning of the Autumn Term following their ninth birthday. The designated Middle School is Catshill Middle. All local feeder schools work in partnership as members of the Bromsgrove High School Pyramid.

At Lickey End First School we work with parents and the community to stimulate our children to learn and communicate effectively, in a secure and happy environment, where every individual is encouraged to give of their best and get on with others.

• Provide a secure, caring and stimulating environment within which children will find the confidence and support to develop intellectually, emotionally, physically and spiritually. 
• Give all children an equal opportunity to fulfil their potential, regardless of gender, race, religion or social background. 
• Deliver a broad, balanced and meaningful curriculum which provides challenges and a sense of achievement for all pupils.
• Develop positive attitudes in children towards each other, the school, the community and the process of learning within and outside the school.
• Recognise the richness, value and variety of different cultures so that they can be appreciated and respected within both local and further communities.
• Recognise that a child's best chance of educational success will result from an effective partnership of pupils, parents, teachers, governors and community and will work towards developing those partnerships.
