A very warm welcome to the East Farleigh Primary School website. Whilst the website is always evolving, it can never replace the experience of visiting us. If you would like to arrange a visit, need to know more, or are interested in supporting our children's learning, please contact us.
East Farleigh Primary School, a small, single-form entry for pupils aged 4-11, is part of the village community within the beautiful Kent countryside. Our sense of community starts within the school and extends out to the partnership between home and school. We know active support from parents and carers is vital in progressing every child's education.
We deeply value interest and support from our community. The school's team-work is embedded into our relationships with home life, the local community and the other schools in the surrounding area.
