Langley Hall Primary Academy is a school for five to 11 year olds in Langley, Slough. It was established by Sally Eaton, Director of The Childcare Company, a teacher and trained nursery Ofsted Inspector who has been running schools and nurseries for 30 years.

The school focuses on preparing children for life. It will do this by employing teachers who will make learning imaginative, creative and inspiring, thereby motivating children to want to learn. The school  will lay down firm foundations by giving numeracy and literacy a high priority. Art, drama, music, dance and sport also feature highly to provide every child with the opportunity to find their talents and shine.

 Mrs Eaton says:

Where children are motivated and have high self esteem and are excited about learning, they learn best. We want within our school to put that at the very foundation of everything we do and to encourage children to be challenged, to challenge themselves and for us to challenge them; and for us to employ high calibre staff who really believe passionately in the same vision and really want that for the children that they’re going to be teaching.

I made the proposal to open the school because there is a real need in the area for additional primary school places and because I believe that the vision and ethos I have for the school will make a positive impact on the education that local children can receive.
