Headteacher’s Welcome

On behalf of the school community, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our website. I am proud and privileged to be the Headteacher of this exciting, dynamic and well-respected school.

Long Furlong is a one-form entry primary school with a nursery. The school opened in 1993 and continues to be a place where learning and a sense of family and community are as important as they were 31 years ago.

Our children are at the heart of everything we do. We provide a safe, nurturing and purposeful learning environment for our children to flourish and move on to their next step in education. We aim to develop a culture of inclusion and diversity in which all those connected to our school feel proud of their identity and able to participate fully in school life. As a school we make special efforts to ensure that all groups prosper and achieve their full potential.

We have five key values that underpin our approach to all aspects of school life. They are:

•  Respect
•  Compassion
•  Responsibility
•  Courage
•  Resilience

By encouraging and living out these values we have a school that is a warm, caring inclusive and ambitious place to be.

As the Headteacher, I am fortunate to work with an extremely talented and dedicated team of staff who are driven to provide the very best for the children. I am ably supported by the Governing body, who work tirelessly in support of the school.

I trust that our school website provides you with a useful source of information. It is designed to give you a glimpse into our wonderful community. We are enormously proud of our school and if you would like to know more, please do contact us and arrange a visit – both the children and staff look forward to welcoming you.
