‘Onwards and Upwards!’

About Us

Welcome to Longlands Primary School

Longlands is a small and friendly school where every child is known and valued. With one class per year group and around 220 pupils, we offer a close-knit community where children feel safe, supported and inspired to learn.

Our school opened in March 1974 and is tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, right next to Herts Regional College. We’re easy to reach from the A10 and the M25, and we’re fortunate to be part of a residential area with a choice of secondary schools nearby, supporting smooth transitions for our pupils as they move on to the next stage of their education.

We take pride in celebrating each child’s individuality while helping them grow and reach their full potential. Our staff are passionate about creating a positive and inclusive environment where children can flourish both academically and personally.

The school grounds are a real highlight. We have two playgrounds, one for our younger children and one for our older pupils, as well as a large playing field and a conservation area that supports outdoor learning. These spaces are always evolving to reflect the needs of our curriculum and the wider community.

Our School Emblem

Our emblem is Quetzalcoatl, an Aztec god who was honoured for his connection to learning, creativity and growth. He represents our commitment to nurturing curiosity and encouraging a lifelong love of learning in every child.
