The Mount School Limited Wins Eaton Smith’s Business of the Month Award

Eaton Smith LLP is delighted to announce that The Mount School Limited has been named the winner of our Business of the Month Award.

Based in West Yorkshire, The Mount School Limited is a well-established independent school providing high-quality education within a nurturing and values-driven environment. With a strong emphasis on academic achievement, personal development, and pastoral care, the school has built a respected reputation for supporting pupils to achieve their full potential.

The Mount School combines a broad and balanced curriculum with a commitment to developing confidence, resilience, and leadership skills. Through small class sizes, dedicated teaching staff, and a supportive school community, pupils benefit from personalised attention that fosters both academic success and emotional wellbeing.

Beyond the classroom, the school offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, enrichment programmes, and community engagement initiatives, ensuring that students develop into well-rounded individuals prepared for the next stage of their education and future careers.

The judges were particularly impressed by The Mount School’s commitment to educational excellence, its strong pastoral ethos, and its positive impact on families across the region. Deborah Melluish, Partner at Eaton Smith and Chair of the judging panel commented:

“The Mount School Limited demonstrates a clear dedication to delivering high-quality education while placing equal importance on character development and wellbeing. Their commitment to nurturing confident, capable young people makes them a highly deserving winner of this award.”

Chris Sellers, Director of The Mount School, commented on the win: “We are incredibly proud to receive this award, particularly because it recognises the whole community around The Mount. Our staff care deeply, our families place enormous trust in us, and our children rise to the opportunities they are given every single day. We believe education should build confidence as well as capability, and it means a great deal to see that approach recognised locally.”

As the Business of the Month winner, The Mount School Limited will now be considered for Eaton Smith’s prestigious Business of the Year Award in June, which recognises outstanding organisations across the region.

Deborah Melluish (Eaton Smith Solicitors) was joined on the judging panel by Gill Carman (PIB Insurance), Emma Sinfield (Mid Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce) and Annie Bradley (Department for Business and Trade).
