Welcome to our website

Fred Longworth is an increasingly popular 11 - 16 High School with an enviable and deserved reputation as a caring and successful establishment. Staff morale is high and the school has a positive approach to progress and raising attainment.

This success has been recognised by the Secretary of State for Education in designating us as a Specialist School - with Arts College status. We are also one of the first 103 schools in the country with ’Leading Edge’ status.

Thanks to all our friends

As we near the end of the Academic Year, may I wish all our families and friends of the school a very happy and safe holiday.

I would also like to thank you for your tremendous support over the past year – we really appreciate it.

It has been another excellent year for Fred Longworth High School, with many highlights - the Shakespeare event described in the May issue of the school news letter being typical of the outstanding opportunities on offer to our students.

Finally may I thank all our staff – now numbering 160, for their hard work and unfailing good humour over the year.

Have a good holiday

A Colley
