High quality learning
Long Close Senior School is where the true essence of our tailored educational approach comes to life. Guiding students from Year 7 onwards, our mission is to empower them for success in their GCSEs, charting a course toward selective Sixth Forms, prestigious universities, or rewarding apprenticeships for a promising future.
Amidst our intimate class sizes, ongoing assessments, and dedicated pastoral care, an open line of communication thrives among teachers, fostering a deep understanding of each student's journey. This keen insight illuminates areas of challenge that may warrant extra attention, showcases burgeoning strengths that deserve exploration, and, above all, outlines pathways to accomplishment.
