Croftlands Junior School was created in 1974 when the existing primary school was divided into two schools to cater for Infant and Junior children separately. It is a Local Authority Community School, sharing its extensive site with Croftlands Infant School and situated in a quiet South Lakeland market town close to the Lake District National Park. In December 2018, we moved into a brand new building on the same site. The grounds include a large playing field, a playground and a wooded wildlife area and are under continual development and improvement.
