At Longacre we believe it is our ethos and values that set us apart from other prep schools.
Ethos
At Longacre our ethos is “A happy heart goes all the way”.
Values
- We believe that every child has excellence that should be celebrated and every child needs support in other areas.
- We believe childhood needs to be protected and children deserve to have fun at school.
- We believe in a holistic education.
Aims
Longacre aims to ensure that children are ready for the next adventure. We achieve this by:
- providing a holistic education – core subjects, languages, humanities and science – both in the classroom and outdoors.
- stretching children who are flying, and igniting the spark where this has dimmed.
- encouraging problem solving, critical thinking, outdoor learning, teamwork and leadership for all.
- running a huge range of extracurricular clubs and activities to support children’s interests, and making sure that all children are involved in music, art, drama and performance.
- working with parents to ensure the best possible outcomes for children.
- making sure children have fun as well as being prepared for 11+.
- treating all children as individuals, from supporting their learning to enabling them to go to the widest range of destination schools.
