At Long Close Private School, we believe that learning extends beyond what is taught in the classroom. We combine our outstanding academic programme with a broad range of extra-curricular activities, including Sport, Music & Performing Arts, Art and specialist outdoor learning to provide a well-rounded educational experience that thoroughly prepares children for life both inside and outside of academia.
Our wide-ranging curriculum is underpinned by academic progression but is genuinely supported by a variety of events and opportunities both in and out of school. Our friendly atmosphere and commitment to consistent development means that everybody at the school enjoys the time they spend here.
