Longroyde Primary School was formed in September 2016 following the merger of the former Castlefields Infants School and Longroyde Junior School. The new school boasts provision from 2 to 4 years, (Longroyde Nursery) and 5 to 11, (Longroyde Primary).
We have specially resourced sites which cater for the individual needs of each age range; at the primary school we have dedicated cooking, design technology and music rooms which helps bring out the best in the children's creativity. There are 2 age appropriate libraries, the children are encouraged to choose their own reading.
We offer a rich after school curriculum and Family Learning ensures parents can be involved with their child's development at school. A great deal of investment has been made in the ICT facilities and now includes banks of net books and laptops in addition to the specialist ICT suite for the older pupils at Longroyde Road.
The new school has gone from strength to strength supported by local church St Matthew's and assisted by a very active PFA. Events and activities are organised across the community and promoted on Facebook, to find out more read our Longroyde Primary School PFA pages,
