Welcome to Laindon Park Primary School & Nursery Thank you for taking the time to visit our new website, which we hope will give all the information you need to get to know us. We are a small school located in a rural, unspoilt area. Our building retains a Victorian character with many historical features.
We are a school where the child is at the heart of everything we do and leads the decisions we make. As Ofsted said about us "pupils are happy and enjoy school". We are always aiming to improve, not only the education that we provide to pupils, but also the services that we provide to the local community.
No website can convey the full picture of school life, so do come in, visit the school and see for yourself. I will be more than happy to meet you and answer any questions you may have.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.

Governing body (9 current, 1 former)
iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.1 governor is linked to a profile (all confirmed).
