Sport plays a vibrant role in life at LEH. With 12 different sports taught across the curriculum and a wide range of inter-school team opportunities, there is something for everyone – whether pupils are looking to stay active, play for enjoyment, or compete at the highest level.
We are proud of our long-standing reputation for sporting excellence. Our beautiful grounds and exceptional on-site facilities allow most sports to be played on campus, and our teams regularly compete – and succeed – in local, regional, and national competitions. We are also proud to have several pupils representing their country at national level in gymnastics, swimming, lacrosse, rowing, fencing, football, and more.
We also have a dedicated Talented & Aspiring Athlete Programme, open to any pupil who wants to meet a sporting ambition, offering specialist mentoring, training flexibility, and tailored pastoral support – helping pupils balance academic demands with elite sporting ambitions.
Our ethos is rooted in participation, enjoyment, and wellbeing. At every level, we encourage pupils to discover the joy of sport and the lifelong benefits of staying active, confident, and connected through physical activity. We have lots of teams for different sports and arrange fixtures and competitions to help all pupils participate in matches.
