Strengths
- “‘Longford school is more than a school, it feels like a true community’, is how one parent captured the sentiments of many.”
- “The school radiates a welcoming, friendly and inclusive ethos.”
- “Everyone upholds the school’s motto of ‘time to learn, time to care and time to have fun’.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, it is not always explicitly clear what specific knowledge leaders intend pupils to learn.”
- “This means that pupils might not achieve as highly as they could in these subjects.”
