From the Long Crendon School
Our engaging and friendly school, as well as our outstanding students and staff, make us immensely proud. Our school is values-based. By taking into account an ethical values vocabulary (principles that govern behaviour) as the cornerstone of effective educational practise, we hope to advance an educational philosophy that is founded on respecting oneself, others, and the environment. This facilitates the development of academic standards while fostering a secure sense of self in students and fostering respect for others and oneself. We were given the Values Quality Mark as a consequence of our emphasis on values. All of the students and employees at our school are devoted to having their physical, emotional, and social needs met. Our School Development Plan for 2018鈥�2021, which outlines our primary objectives for the following years, was created to ensure that we are consistently working toward success in each of these areas. Long Crendon School has received an Outstanding rating from Ofsted and is also highly regarded by parents. At least 90% of parents gave the school positive reviews for key components like teaching, how much their child enjoys it there, how new students are welcomed, and how well parents are kept informed about their child's development. This website seeks to introduce you to the institution while also regularly updating information for both parents and students. Any questions you may have can be directed to the school directly.
