GLF Schools GLF Schools GLF Schools was founded in 2012 in order to enable the federation of Glyn School (an academy in 2011) and Danetree Junior School. Together, we began our journey to become a Mat of more than 1000 talented staff working with over 10,000 children in 40 schools across 5 regions in southern England. Welcome to Longford Park Primary School.
We are situated at the heart of our local community and we know that the positive and collaborative partnerships we have with our families and wider community members are key to creating the best possible environment for learning. Our purpose is to be a school where children Grow in character, Learn with purpose and Flourish for the future.
This ethos is embedded within our school vision, our mission statement and is clearly demonstrated daily through our core values.
