Welcome to Longcroft School and Sixth Form College

I am delighted to welcome you to this prospectus and introduce you to the East Yorkshire Sixth Form @ Longcroft. Longcroft School has a long tradition of being at the heart of our local community, and we are proud to serve the market town of Beverley and its surrounding areas. Our location and facilities are truly exceptional. Over 6.5 million pounds has been invested over recent years in our state-of-the-art learning spaces and with extensive grounds boasting fabulous views across the Westwood and Beverley Racecourse, this really is a stunning place to learn. 

Our school has a clear vision for exceptional education founded on shared values and an absolute ambition for each and every child. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive school, where every child is known and cared for as an individual, and where pupils take pride in their achievements and those of our community. We are committed to providing the very best education for our students, and I feel privileged to see the many achievements of our young people each and every day. 

Through our motto ‘Be Ambitious’ we seek to articulate our commitment to educating the whole child and to preparing our young people for the challenges and opportunities that life beyond school will present. We work hard to provide an enriched and holistic school experience, which values the opportunities we are able to provide beyond what is taught in our classrooms. 

We seek to promote learning and personal development in many and varied ways including our extensive range of visits and performances, leadership opportunities, expeditions, charity and community work, our Duke of Edinburgh Scheme, or representing the school competitively through sport, the arts or literature. We also provide targeted support, tutorials and preparation programmes for students considering future applications to Oxbridge or Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science as well as the Russell Group amongst other education and career pathways. 

This is an incredible time to be joining our Sixth Form as demand for places continues to grow rapidly. Alongside reading this prospectus, I would encourage you to speak to our current parents and of course, visit our school to meet our fabulous staff and students. We believe in the capacity for ordinary people to achieve extraordinary things, and welcome applications from those who wish to join us in reimagining what is possible as individuals and as a community.
