Welcome from the Headteacher
Welcome to Longstone Primary School
It is my pleasure to welcome you to Longstone Primary School, a vibrant and nurturing learning community at the heart of the Peak District. Our ethos—Nurture, Ignite, Shine—reflects our commitment to supporting every child to grow in confidence, curiosity, and character.
We are proud to offer enthusiastic and caring teachers, excellent indoor and outdoor learning environments, and staff trained in Forest School provision. Our pupils benefit from a specialist sports teacher and high-quality music tuition delivered by skilled peripatetic instructors. Our provision is further enriched by a breakfast and after-school club, alongside a wide variety of extra-curricular activities.
While our pupils achieve well academically, we are equally proud of their accomplishments in music, sport, and personal development. Our recent Ofsted report highlighted that: “pupils are inspired… they can express themselves… and benefit from a range of wider opportunities.”
We are committed to delivering high-quality, inclusive education that reflects current research and best practice. Whether you're a prospective parent, a member of our community, or simply curious about our school, I invite you to explore our website and discover what makes Longstone Primary such a special place to learn and grow.
Warm regards,
Mark Knight
