Introduction from the Headteacher
Welcome to Fred Longworth High School. Our aim is simple – to inspire all our students to achieve their best through “belonging, engaging and succeeding together”.
We have a tradition of achieving excellent examination results and students are given a strong head start in life. Our 2016 results continue this tradition, with 70% achieving 5 A*-C GCSE grades including English and Maths. Excellent teaching is at the heart of our success. Committed and enthusiastic teachers deliver high quality, enjoyable lessons that encourage a lifelong love of learning.

SIMS Online – for Parents and Students
*** For the Academic Year 2017/18, we are introducing our new ‘SIMS Parent and Student Apps’ ***
Starting in September 2017 we’ll be inviting you to download our new apps or use our new SIMS Online website for sharing information with you about your child’s school life. The new app will allow you to monitor your child’s progress in school more closely than ever before. You will have immediate access to your child’s attendance and behaviour records, interim reports and you will be able to monitor the homework that has been set on a daily basis.
We’ll be sending out further information in September, but to view a letter to parents’ click here, or to obtain more details now, click here to move to our dedicated page.
