A BEAUTIFUL AND SAFE LOCATION: The first thing that strikes many people about Longdon Park is just how beautiful it is here. Set within acres of lush gardens and surrounded by fields, the school has the dual advantage of being in a peaceful, rural location and having great transport links to urban centres throughout Derbyshire. It’s a safe space where our children can explore, play, enjoy sports and take part in a wide variety of outdoor learning opportunities – which are an important element of the curriculum here at Longdon Park. We also love to take our children off site to experience a wide range of activities and get involved in community life.
PURPOSE BUILT CLASSROOMS: The first step to engage children in learning is creating a space in which they feel happy and safe. Our school is an ASC friendly environment with purpose built science, home technology, music and therapy spaces.
COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENT: The link between home life and school is vital, so we’re in contact with families on a daily basis. There are plenty of opportunities for parents to join us for open days, sports days and whole school celebrations. By working together, we can ensure continuity of care for children and provide the individualised support that we know makes such a difference

Things to note
The school community strives to equip all pupils with a toolbox of skills, strategies, and knowledge to prepare them for their onward journey and realise the contributions they can make to the wider world.
This will be achieved through the offer of a rich, vibrant, and ambitious curriculum, which will draw upon meaningful real-life experiences. The curriculum is designed so that it is ambitious for all learners and enables them to make progress regardless of their varied starting points or academic history. Its ultimate aim is to provide learners with the cultural capital, skills and qualifications that they need to succeed in later life whether this lies in further education or within employment.
