If you want to know more about Church Langley the newly published  "School Profile" is a new means for us to report annually to parents. It replaces the Governors' Annual Report. All schools use the same format which is designed to provide information about the school's performance and its broader achievements, both in and beyond the classroom. The School Profile is intended to give parents the information they need to understand the school's performance, strengths and areas for improvement. Each Profile contains the following information: the school’s successes details of extra-curricular activities health and safety information the school's response to the latest Ofsted report We hope that enjoy reading about us on the schools pages of the official DirectGov website
