INTRODUCING LOUGHTON SCHOOL……
Loughton was purpose built in 1987 as a 480 place Junior school. On 1 July 2013 we converted to an Academy.
Within the main building there are 16 carpeted home bases which open onto shared areas. There is a hall, a music room, an art room and several mobile IT suites
Outside there is an enclosed courtyard containing paved areas and flowerbeds. There are two playgrounds, extensive grounds, playing fields, an outdoor basketball court and playground equipment.
THE AREA SERVED BY THE SCHOOL…
The reserved area for the school is the two grid squares of Loughton and Shenley Church End, and the southern ends of Crownhill and Great Holm. Our feeder schools are Loughton Manor and Glastonbury Thorn Infant Schools. The school is highly regarded in the local community and a large number of ‘out of catchment’ requests for places are made annually.
THE CURRICULUM
At Loughton we believe acquiring the core skills in reading, writing and mathematics to be of paramount importance. We endeavour to do this as part of an exciting and creative curriculum. At Loughton we have had a creative curriculum, with a termly cross-curricular theme in each year group.
EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES…
Children are encouraged to take part in the extra-curricular activities we offer. These have included gymnastics, cross country, athletics, hockey, football, basketball, netball, cricket, rugby, art, choir, First Aid, French, Maths, Science, ICT, DT and board games. Our commitment to extra-curricular activities was recognised by receiving the Sport England Sportsmark Award and an Artsmark Award.
PARENTAL/COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT…
The active involvement of parents in their children's education is of great value to the school. We are also fortunate to have a number of parents helping in school on a regular basis. There is a very active and supportive PTSA which holds many social and fundraising activities during the school year.
The school fosters strong links with the local community for example, inviting local groups to productions and letting of our facilities.
EDUCATIONAL VISITS…
Educational visits are planned and organised as part of the ongoing work of the school. As well as local visits, residential visits are organised for Year 5 - youth hostelling in the Caldecotte and Year 6 - outdoor pursuits in Staffordshire or a 5-day residential visit to Germany.
SAFEGUARDING…
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the “Disclosure and Baring Service”.
